Accredia participates to the event organized by the World Trade Organization (WTO).
WTO Members and stakeholders discuss how accreditation and related policies can be advanced to further reduce barriers to trade in goods.
Guiding questions:
- How can accreditation and related policies of Members be advanced to further reduce barriers to trade in goods? How can the ILAC and IAF, and cooperation between accreditation systems, be leveraged to avoid such barriers?
- How has accreditation landscape changed in the past 25 years since the TBT Agreement was drafted, and is there a need for further Committee guidance on accreditation considering this?
- How can accreditation (and accreditation policies) help permit participation of CABs located in the territories of other Members in their CAPs on a national treatment basis, in light of multiple approaches to support a trusted accreditation regime?
