PRESS RELEASE  
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE  
Sweden gives CHF 1 million to help developing countries meet 
standards for farm trade  
Sweden is contributing SEK 10,000,000 (just over 1,100,000 CHF) in 2019 to help developing and 
least-developed countries (LDCs) participate more actively in global agricultural trade. This grant 
to the Standards and Trade Development Facility (STDF) aims to support developing countries in 
complying with international food safety, animal and plant health standards w ith the objective of 
increasing their access to world markets.  
 
WTO Director -General Roberto Azevêdo said: "As one of the biggest contributors to our technical 
assistance activities, Sweden is demonstrating its continued commitment to help developing 
countries and LDCs maximize the benefits of trade. In particular, Sweden's new donation will help 
these countries improve their sanitary and phytosanitary standards so as to connect more easily to 
global agricultural markets."  
 
Sweden's Minister for EU Affairs  and Trade, Ann Linde, said: "Enhancing the capacities of 
developing countries to meet sanitary and phytosanitary standards is critical to helping them 
increase their exports of agricultural products and better integrate into global trade. G iven the 
import ant contribution the STDF is making to inclusive growth, poverty reduction and to meeting 
the Sustainable Development Goals, Sweden is pleased to be continuing our long -lasting 
partnership. " 
 
Sweden has donated over CHF 51 million to WTO trust funds over t he past 18 years.  
 
The STDF is a global coordination platform that brings together leading trade, health and 
agriculture experts worldwide to share knowledge, tools and good practice and strengt hen the 
effectiveness of SPS technical assistance provided to developing countries. The STDF also provides 
support and funding for the development and implementation of collaborative and innovative 
projects that promote compliance with international SPS re quirements. The STDF is housed and

draft amendment requires that all salt that are imported, manufactured for sale, sold,

be added in a proportion equivalent to not less than 20 mg/kg and not more than

Malaysia to overcome the Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD). 
2. National Iodine Deficiency Disorders Survey 2008 found that more than 50% of 
school children aged 8-10 years old in Malaysia had urinary iodine level below the normal level set by the WHO (100-199 µg/litre). International recommendations particularly by WHO/UNICEF/ICIDD show Universal Salt Iodisation (USI) is the most
