Monitoring and Evaluation report 2021

UEBT’s impacts in 2020

UEBT operates a monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system for its membership and certification programmes. The system is designed in accordance with the ISEAL Alliance’s Code of Good Practice for Assessing the Impacts of Social and Environmental Standards Systems (ISEAL Impacts Code). It is set up to monitor and assess the extent to which the desired results identified in the UEBT Theory of Change (ToC) are being achieved.

The actions that UEBT members and their suppliers implement as part of the UEBT membership and certification programs have a reach covering several continents, involve improvement of sourcing practices for hundreds of botanical species and ingredients from nature, for thousands of supply chains, and affect tens of thousands of field operators. The documents below explain all about the methodology of the report, the reach and scale of the application of Ethical BioTrade principles and practices within member companies and other impact indicators.
