An introduction to the Membership Committee, a permanent committee of the ISEAL Board of Directors that is responsible primarily for forming recommendations on new membership applications, deciding on member disputes that may arise as a result of an independent evaluation of Code Compliance, and deciding on appeals decisions of the Secretariat not to recommend ISEAL Community Member status or to suspend or withdraw Code Compliant status.
In 2019, we launched a review of the principles to find out how they have been used and adopted.

This document contains information about the review objectives, process and opportunities for involvement.
Sustainability systems are market-based tools designed to address the most pressing social and environmental challenges of our time.
