Terrell, Katherine | Almeida, Rita K.
The WWF/World Bank Alliance for Forest Conservation & Sustainable Use (the Alliance, now known as the Global Forest Alliance) was created in 1997. The partners - WWF and the World Bank - set a target of achieving 200 million hectares of production forests under independently certified sustainable management, and to frame this work produced a set of criteria that certification systems should meet. These were subsequently encapsulated within the revised World Bank Forest Policy in 2004. Both partners have undertaken a variety of work to promote this target - the World Bank through its country and project level lending, and WWF through its work with the corporate sector (including the work of the Global Forest & Trade Network). Staff within both organizations faced two challenges. First, a variety of forest certification systems exist. A common and systematic framework for WWF and World Bank managers was therefore needed to evaluate the different systems for their adherence to the principles and requirements that both organizations have agreed as important. Second, both organizations individually and together provide technical and financial assistance to the development of certification systems, as well as to the development of national standards processes. This paper contains the following chapters: compliance with international norms and standards; standards and the standard -setting process; conformity assessment, certification, and accreditation.
