Guidance on UEBT Standard Principle 2: Regeneration of Wild Collected Species

 
 

Principle 2 of the UEBT Standard promotes sustainable use of biodiversity. One key aspect of this principle is the regeneration of wild collected species over time and the prevention or mitigation of negative impact of wild collection on interdependent species. Some indicators of criterion 2.1 in the standard focuses on these practices.

This factsheet gives guidance on how to ensure the regeneration of wild collected species, including concrete tips and examples for companies and their suppliers for compliance with UEBT requirements on sustainable use of wild collected species.

It is part of a series of technical guidance documents, meant to support the implementation of key issues of the UEBT standard. It was developed with the support of the BioTrade facilitation programme, UNCTAD.  UEBT and UNCTAD acknowledge the financial contribution of the Swiss State Secretariat of Economic Affairs (SECO).
