Standard revision process Terms of Reference

 
 

Since the publication of the Ethical BioTrade Standard 2012 version, UEBT and its members have gained significant additional experience with the applications of the standard, including through certification processes. The global regulatory landscape for BioTrade has also significantly evolved since 2012, particularly with regard to Access and Benefit Sharing. The revision process allows UEBT to consider these experiences and changes. Furthermore, UEBT’s procedures foresee that its standards are revised every 5 years, in line with ISEAL codes of good practice. Revision of the standard was foreseen in 2017 but was postponed by the UEBT Board of Directors (BoD) in view of changes in the standard landscape.
