ISEAL Alliance

Tunisia’s Organic Standard is part of a series of case studies developed through the ISEAL Alliance and TSPN ‘Governmental Use of Voluntary Standards’ project, presented and discussed at a high level conference held in October 2008.

These case studies are examples of collaborations between public bodies and voluntary social and environmental standards systems. They investigate why public authorities choose to work with these standards, and what are the benefits and challenges in doing so. Together, the studies represent diversity: in socio-economic and regulatory environments, in the institutional arrangements between governments and standards, in the policy objectives aimed for, and the implementation tools used.
