About
Standards and Trade Development Facility (STDF)
Established by FAO, OIE, WBG, WHO and WTO, the STDF is a global partnership that helps developing countries to meet international standards and access international markets by tackling SPS gaps, and promoting food safety, animal and plant health. Along with the Codex Secretariat, the IPPC Secretariat participates actively in the STDF both by contributing to the STDF's global coordination and knowledge platform and to the development and implementation of a wide range of STDF projects.
The Standards and Trade Development Facility (STDF) funds projects that improve sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) capacity in developing countries to facilitate safe trade.
The STDF supports the implementation of the standards, guidelines and recommendations of the international standard-setting bodies under the WTO SPS Agreement: Codex Alimentarius for food safety, the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) for plant health, and the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) for animal health.
