Making Credible Jurisdictional Claims Good Practice Guide v1.1 (2022)

ISEAL has developed a good practice guide to help ensure that sustainability claims made by jurisdictions, landscape initiatives, and the companies that source from or support them, are credible. The guidance covers the structural and performance claims a jurisdictional entity may wish to make, along with the supporting action claims of other related stakeholders.

Version 1.0 was published in October 2020 following a consultation process that included a webinar to introduce the key concepts and discuss the draft guidance. The guidance was updated for version 1.1 in March 2022 in line with the launch of ISEAL's effective company actions in landscapes and jurisdictions guiding practices. The update also incorporated learning from two pilot projects with LTKL in Indonesia and PCI in Brazil.
