ISEAL supports a broad community of affiliates who are working together to improve the social and environmental impacts of voluntary standards systems. Affiliates are involved in all aspects of the standards system, from standard-setting and certification to capacity building and advocacy. The ISEAL community helps to find and share resources about sustainability standards and to collaborate and innovate with peers.
The community is open to all stakeholders (individuals and organisations) that meet basic participation criteria, focusing on mission alignment. Benefits include:
Active participation and information exchange is expected. Affiliate fees are based on participant category and range from 100 to 1,000 EUR per year.
Please review the ISEAL Affiliate Requirements. Applications for Affiliate status can be submitted at any time. For more information please contact Rosie Forsyth, Community Support Coordinator at: rosie [at] isealalliance [dot] org
Please send your application form and copies of required documents to the ISEAL Alliance. All documents need to be submitted in English.
A non-refundable application fee of 100 EUR applies for Affiliates. This fee is waived for individual applicants.
After receipt of all application documents and payment, the ISEAL Secretariat will conduct a desk review of your application. Complete applications will be posted for a 30 day comment period by ISEAL Members and Affiliates. Affiliate applications will be reviewed for decision by the ISEAL Secretariat.
