      "This project aims to contribute to the IPPC Multi-Donor Trust Fund that funds the operation and maintenance of the ePhyto Solution (electronic phytosanitary certificates), until all countries are able to fulfill their expected level of contributions under the sustainable funding mechanism.",
      "This project aims to support a Sea Container Workshop in 2026, which will allow industry and national plant protection organizations to provide feedback on the final report being prepared by the Sea Container Focus Group.",
      "The objective of this project is the funding contribution to the IPPC multi-donor trust fund to support the IPPC e-phyto solution.",
      "This project aims to fund an expert group to complete a comprehensive revision to update and modernize ISPM 12.",
      "This project aims the IPPC ePhyto Solution becomes part of the core international infrastructure facilitating safe global trade in plants and plant products via the exchange of e-phytos amongst IPPC contracting parties. However, it is currently exposed to a funding vulnerability as there is no obligation for IPPC contracting parties to provide funding, so has been solely funded by a only a small number of donors. CPM-18 has urged all contracting parties to provide support to the IPPC ePhyto Solution through the Multi-donor Trust Fund to ensure the continuation of this important platform unti",
      "The objective of this project is previous funding supported the Sea Containers Task Force (SCTF) workshop, held September 18-20, 2022 in London, U.K. Requested funding will support a follow-up workshop and another focus group in 2023.",
      "This project aims to be used to support the development and drafting of a new annex on remote audits for the ISPM 47 (Audit in the phytosanitary context). Its development will help ensure that remote audits are considered an acceptable phytosanitary measure and provide a more consistent approach to remote audits. This in turn would provide more flexibility for oversight while decreasing the cost to Canadian agricultural exporters.",
      "The objective of this project will support the Focus Group on Climate Change and Phytosanitary Issues in the adoption of an action plan for the “Assessment and Management of Climate Change Impacts on Plant Health.” The focus group will support the implementation and delivery of the IPPC action plan on “climate change Impacts on Plant Health” over four years (2022-2025).",
      "The objective of this project is funding the development of a guide on audit to support the implementation of the recently adopted ISPM (45) on “Requirements for national plant protection organizations if authorizing entities to perform phytosanitary actions.”",
      "This project aims to be used to finalize the IPPC Secretariat work on developing the guide on phytosanitary audits. The guide on audits will ensure that all contracting parties, including Canada’s main and emerging trading partners, have a common understanding of the ISPM 47 Audit in the phytosanitary context (adopted in 2022), which should translate into a more predictable and regular access to new markets for both imported and exported plant products.",
      "This project aims the Technical Panel on Commodity Standards (TPCS) to be responsible for the development and updating commodity standards and develops guidance on related aspects. Funding of the TPCS will support the activities of the Technical Panel and will ultimately result in the development of various commodity standards. The adoption of commodity-specific standards is expected to facilitate and accelerate trade negotiations and simplify safe trade in plant products between importing and exporting countries."
