Réunion d'information du FANDC sur les normes privées

(uniquement en anglais)
The aim of this STDF information session was threefold: (i) to update the SPS Committee on recent developments in this area; (ii) to examine the options for facilitating the compliance of developing countries with these schemes; and (iii) to learn more about on-going donor initiatives in this area.

The information session was organized as part of STDF's co-ordination mandate in the area of SPS-related technical co-operation. Through this information session, it was hoped that a better practical understanding of strategies for compliance would emerge, along with a clearer picture of who is doing what in terms of technical co-operation activities in this area.
