UPDATE ON THE STANDARDS AND TRADE DEVELOPMENT FACILITY  
NOTE BY THE SECRETARIAT1 
1  INTRODUCTION  
1.1.  This document provides a brief update on the work of the Standards and Trade Development 
Facility (STDF) since the last meeting of the Committee in March 2021. Delegates are encouraged 
to visit the STDF website2 to view and get familiar with  STDF activiti es and projects, download STDF 
briefing notes and other publications, and subscribe to STDF's mailing list (at the bottom of 
the STDF homepage) to receive regular updates on STDF wor k. 
1.2.  The work of the STDF partnership is guided by the STDF Strategy (2020 -2024), which aims to 
further strengthen STDF's role as a global platform for dialogue and learning on SPS capacity 
development.3 The STDF  also finance s the development and implementation of collaborative and 
innovative SPS projects, with the potential to i nfluence and catalyse SPS  improvements.  
The STDF Strategy is accompanied by a new  Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) Framework , 
which is being integrated into STDF projects .4 
1.3.  The pandemic has change d the way the STDF and its partners work . The Secretariat  will release 
its third COVID risk management report  in July  and continues to learn, adapt , and actively monitor 
the implications of COVID across all its work streams. STDF's new film " Shaping a safer  world " 
highlights the importance of investing in SPS capacity development as a global public good to support 
economic recovery and longer -term resilience against COVID -19 and similar shocks .5 SPS delegates 
are encouraged to watch and share this film wide ly. 
2  STDF GLOBAL PLATFORM  
2.1.  The STDF convenes and connects diverse public and private sector organizations across 
agriculture, health, trade, and development to exchange experiences, identify opportunities for 
collaboration, and promote a more coherent approa ch to SPS capacity development. As part of this 
platform, the STDF Working Group allows members to share and learn from each other's work, 
helping to disseminate, influence and scale up good practices more widely.  
2.2.  The Working Group met virtually from 30 Ma rch to 1 April 2021, chaired by Mr Tom Heilandt, 
Codex Secretary . Ms Kelly McCormick from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 
acted as vice-chairperson of the Working Group . Members welcomed three new SPS developing 
country experts in the STDF, namely Shitar Dorjee (Bhutan), Juliet Goldsmith (Jamaica) and 
Unesu  Ushewokunze -Obatolu (Zimbabwe).6 The summary report of the meeting is available on the 
STDF website.7

  2.3.  On 28 June  2021 , the STDF will organiz e a UN Food Systems Summit Dialogue session entitled 
"Transforming food systems for the 21st Century: Why does facilitating safe trade matter?"8 
In addition, on 14 July  2021 , the STDF will organize a webinar during the SPS Committee week on 
Systems Approac hes in Food Safety and Plant Health.9 SPS delegates are strongly encouraged to 
register and participate actively in th ese events . 
2.4.  The Secretariat is currently finalizing STDF's 2020 Annual Report to be released in July. 
The next meeting of the STDF Workin g Group meeting is scheduled on 19 -21 October.  
3  STDF KNOWLEDGE WORK  
3.1.  The aim of STDF 's knowledge work is to identify and promote good practices and improve 
SPS capacity development outcomes.  Some of t his work tak es place in virtual practitioner groups, 
set up in 2020, that bring together stakeholders for in -depth discussions on topics that cut across 
the areas of food safety, animal and plant health, and trade.  
3.1  Prioritizing SPS Investments for Market Access: P -IMA 
3.2.  The P -IMA framework is an evidence -based appr oach to help inform and improve SPS planning 
and decision making, and mobilize public, private and/or donor resources for SPS investments. 
The framework is being applied in several developing countries through project and project 
preparation grants (PPGs).  The STDF is currently piloting a P -IMA online course in English under 
STDF/PPG/733 in the Caribbean region, in partnership with the Caribbean Agricultural Health and 
Food Safety Agency (CAHFSA).10 A virtual P -IMA course in Spanish is planned in the second  half of 
2021 in collaboration with the Inter -American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA). 
STDF's  collaboration with TradeMark East Africa (TMEA) also continues, aiming to catalyse 
experiences, learnings  and synergies from the application of the P -IMA framework in East African 
countries .11 
3.3.  Delegates who would like to know more about - or benefit from - application of the P -IMA 
framework  can visit the STDF website12 or contact Ms Angelica Cottica ( angelica.grisuk@wto.org ) 
in the STDF Secretariat.  
3.2  Public Private Partnership (PPP)  
3.4.  The Secretariat continues to identify, collect and compile new examples of PPPs in the area of 
SPS capacity (across food safety, anim al health and/or plant health) to facilitate safe trade. 
SPS delegates are encouraged to share PPP examples via the survey (English, French and Spanish) 
on the STDF website .13 The Secretariat hosted the 4th PPP Practitioner Group on 29 April. 
The Global  Alliance for Trade Facilitation (GATF) at the World Economic Forum (WEF) presented its 
work on assisting LDCs and developing countries in implement ing the WTO Trade Facilitation 
Agreement through engagement with the private sector.  
3.5.  Delegates who would like t o know more about STDF's PPP work can visit the STDF website14 
or contact Ms Marlynne Hopper in the STDF Secretariat ( marlynne.hopper@wto.org ). 
3.3  Good Regulatory Practice  
3.6.  STDF's work on  Good Regulatory Practice (GRP) aims to provide guidance to ensure that 
SPS measures are "fit for purpose" and avoid the creation of non -tariff barriers.  A practical Guide on 
GRP in the SPS area for developing countries is being developed in cooperation with STDF partners 
and other  stakeholders.15 The Guide is currently b eing finalized with the help of a review group

3.4  Electronic SPS certification  
3.8.  The STDF continue s to promot e and support the transition in developing countries to pa perless 
SPS systems . Benefits include improv ing traceability throughout SPS supply chains, lower ing food 
waste, cut ting trade times and costs, reduc ing fraudulent practices , and build ing trust among trading 
partners. The  focus of STDF's work is on increasi ng the use of electronic SPS certificates (SPS e -
cert), including through innovative and collaborative projects with the IPPC, OIE and other partners.  
Stakeholders with an interest in SPS e -Cert convene regularly to exchange experiences, identify 
opportuni ties for collaboration, promote synergies and disseminate good practices . The fourth virtual 
meeting of this practitioner group was held on 15 April , at which the OECD presented its recent 
research project on "Digital opportunities for SPS systems and the trade facilitation effects of SPS 
electronic certification".  
3.9.  Delegates who would like to know more about STDF's work on SPS eCert can visit the 
STDF  website17 or contact Mr Simon Padilla in the STDF Secretariat ( simon.padilla@wto.org ). 
4  STDF FUNDING MECHANISM  
4.1.  Since its inception, the STDF has devoted 65%  of its resources to least developed countries 
(LDCs) and other l ow-income countries (OLICs), going beyond its target to devote at least 40%  of 
its resources to these countries. 48% of the number of STDF projects and PPGs has gone to Africa, 
25% to Asia -Pacific, 17%  to Latin America -Caribbean, and 2% to other regions (M iddle East and 
Europe). 9% of all STDF projects and PPGs are classified as global , benefiting all developing 
countries . An overview of on -going projects and PPGs and beneficiaries is provided in Annex 1 . 
4.1  Project developmen t 
4.2.  The STDF provides advice and sup port on issues related to SPS project development and 
finances project preparation grants (PPGs). PPGs, normally up to US$50,000, are available to help 
applicants articulate their SPS needs and develop technically sound and sustainable project 
proposals. P PGs can be requested to: (i) apply SPS capacity evaluation and prioritization tools; 
(ii) prepare feasibility studies before project development to assess the potential impact and 
economic viability of proposals in terms of costs and benefits; and (iii) de velop project proposals for 
funding by donors and/or the STDF.  
4.3.  A total of 113 PPGs  have been approved by the STDF since its inception. Information on all 
on-going and completed PPGs is available on the STDF website.18 
4.2  Project implementation  
4.4.  Financing for p rojects is also available from the STDF. The STDF Working Group gives 
favourable consideration to projects that: (i) identify, develop and disseminate good practice in 
SPS-related technical cooperation, including the development and application of innovati ve and 
replicable approaches; (ii) apply regional approaches to address SPS constraints; and/or 
(iii) implement collaborative approaches across food safety, animal and plant health and trade. 
Beneficiaries must contribute to the project from their own reso urces, either in the form of financial 
or in-kind contributions (such as staff time, use of premises, vehicles, or other existing assets) .

  4.5.  A total of 104 projects  have been approved by the STDF since its inception. Information on 
all on-going and completed  projects is available on the STDF website.19 
4.3  Project evaluation  
4.6.  A selection of completed STDF projects is subject to an independent ex -post evaluation. 
The aim is to assess the overall relevance, coherence, efficiency, effectiveness, sustainability, and 
impact of STDF's projects to ensure accountability, support learning and inform decision -making on 
future policy and practices related to SPS capacity development. Practical guidelines for the 
evaluation of STDF projects are available o n the STDF website, based on the new MEL Framework. 
These Guidelines aim to promote consistency and a common standard in the quality of evaluations 
of STDF projects and draw on the OECD -DAC Principles for the Evaluation of Development 
Assistance.20 
4.7.  Finding s, conclusions and recommendations of a first remote evaluation of a global 
STDF  project that supported training for facilitators to conduct the IPPC Phytosanitary Capacity 
Evaluation (PCE) tool were presented to the STDF Working Group on 30 March - 1 Apri l.21 
Other  remote evaluations are being finalized for STDF projects in Comoros and Latin America. 
More evaluations will be contracted in the second half of 2021. An overview of ongoing evaluations 
is provided in Annex 1 . 
4.4  How to apply for funding?  
4.8.  Applicati ons for STDF funding can be made at any point in the year but should be received at 
least 60 working days in advance of each Working Group meeting to be considered at that meeting. 
The next deadline for the submission of applications is 23 July 2021 . The S TDF launched a new
