To improve food safety, animal health and plant health, governments and the private sector should work together on all fronts – from reforming policies to rolling out capacity-building projects to engaging actors along agri-food value chains – to ensure sustainable results.
STDF knowledge work identifies and promotes good practices to improve SPS outcomes. This includes learning about PPP approaches that support safe trade facilitation. STDF's PPP Practitioner Group and the UNIDO-hosted vTPA Partnership Platform bring together diverse stakeholders with an interest in PPPs to promote learning and synergies. This includes cooperation on case stories to spotlight examples of public-private collaboration, as well as online events to learn about PPPs in Africa, Asia and the Pacific, and Latin America and the Caribbean.
Many STDF projects encourage PPP approaches to strengthen SPS capacities and facilitate trade.
The STDF PPP Practitioner Group brings together experts with an interest in PPP approaches to share and learn about PPP approaches.
