About the event

In a world where sustainability and trade are increasingly interconnected, the real challenge is not choosing between one or the other, but making them work together. This roundtable brings together representatives from ISO, the UNFSS platform, UN agencies, governments, businesses, and universities to address one of the defining questions of our time: how can global trade support environmental ambition? Through real-world examples, participants will explore how International Standards help countries and companies meet their sustainability commitments while remaining competitive and connected to global markets. Join the conversation that drives a new vision for global trade — one where sustainability and economic growth go hand in hand.

Rodrigo Fagundes Cezar, Researcher at the School of International Relations (FGV RI), will speak on the panel.
