Trade for Sustainable Development – T4SD
Components
• Standards Map: over 120 sustainability standards covering 80 sectors and applicable in 180 countries; summary reviews of each standard and code; interac@ve search func@onality per sector/product, region/country or specific criteria; comparisons of standards and self-‐assessment tool for producers and suppliers;
• Research & resources center: Publica@ons, business guides and online resource center;
• Capacity building: Bringing intelligence about what the market demands vis-‐à-‐vis voluntary standards, integrated with other ITC tools.
Rationale • Sustainability concerns in global supply
chains;
• High demand from SMEs for transparency on voluntary standards;
• Confusion among SMEs, TSIs and governments around the prolifera@ng voluntary standards applied in interna@onal markets;
• Lack of credible, central & neutral repository for standards informa@on.
