Standards and Trade Development Facility
The Standards and Trade Development Facility (STDF) continued to help developing countries improve their capacity to implement sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) standards and to access wider markets. It supported the preparation and implementation of numerous new projects aimed at promoting compliance with international standards and facilitating market access. It also produced a user guide on how to prioritize SPS investments and published a series of case studies highlighting the results of recent projects.
