STDF ANNUAL REPORT2020RESILIENCE,ADAPTATION,AND INNOVATION:STRENGTHENING GLOBAL SPS CAPACITYANNUAL REPORT 2020lete rfrom heSTDF2020 will be remembered as a year of adaptation andresilience.The COVID-19 pandemic had an immense impacton our health systems and caused enormous disruptionto the global economy.Governments took measures tocontainthespreadofthevirus,includingtravelrestrictions,lockdowns,social distancing,and other safety protocols.Production and trade in agri-food products was scaledback,resulting in incalculable economic losses around theworld that continue to be felt today.Last year also showed us the importance of workingtogether.Partners,donors,and beneficiaries stayedconnected in a virtual environment,shared information,learned through webinars and new practitioner groups,and continued to convene in the STDF Working Group.Theresults achieved in 2020 are a testament to the resilienceand strength of STDFs global partnership and widernetwork.Further increasing collaboration across sectors,at global,regional and local level,will be key in achievingSTDFs vision of safe trade for the future.Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic,theSTDF adapted quickly across all its workstreams andkept delivering strong results.We made a big effort tounderstand the new realities on the ground and continuedto provide vital assistance to strengthen food safety,animal and plant health systems in developing countries.Digital opportunities and solutions to support economicrecovery and longer-term resilience against future shocksfeatured strongly in STDFs project work.eam2ANNUAL REPORT 2020lesso n s learnedTHE COVID-19 PANDEMICHAS CHANGED THE WAY WE WORKCOVID-19 REAFFIRMED THE NEED FOR SPSINVESTMENTS AS A GLOBAL PUBLIC GOODGREATER ADOPTION OF NEW TECHNOLOGIESAND INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONSINCREASED VALUE OF INTERNATIONALCOOPERATION AND THE PARTNERSHIP MOVINGFORWARDCOVID-19 abruptly affected the status-quo of howwe work.It forced governments,organizations,and businesses to fundamentally adapt to anew,fast-changing,digital world.Meetings,conferences and one-to-one interaction moved toa virtual realm.The STDF managed to successfullyengage its members in new meaningful,andcatalytic ways.COVID-19 offered a tragic but powerful reminderof the ease and speed with which pests anddiseases can cross borders and the critical role ofglobal supply chains.The pandemic illustrated notonly the need to reduce trade costs,but also theinterconnections among food,agriculture and theenvironment.Strengthening food safety,animaland plant health systems through a One Healthapproach is a clear priority for the future.The global pandemic cleared the way for new andcutting-edge technologies to be implementedin every sector around the world.Whether itwas small software innovation or bold ideas onautomation,blockchain and robotics,there wasa strong boost in the promotion and adoption oftechnologies.2020 has shown us first-hand the powerthat international cooperation and effectivepartnerships have in aiding global recovery fromdevastating shocks.The crisis pointed to thecontinued interest in and value of STDFs globalmulti-stakeholder approach in improving foodsafety,animal and plant health capacity.Innovative technologies developed through theSTDF were remarkable and set a precedent foreffective innovation in the SPS area.Projectssuch as ePhyto and eVet advanced theacceptance and implementation of electronicSPS certification.Around the world,other newtechnologies are being tested to streamlineinspection,control and surveillance of pestsand diseases.The new methods used provided opportunitiesfor greater inclusivity,increased inter-sessionalcommunication and more diverse participation,as well as improved efficiency and coordination.These lessons,tools and methods will providevaluable insight and experiences for the futurework of the STDF partnership.Going forward,the STDF will continue conveningglobal experts from across agriculture,health,trade and development,drawing on their technicalexpertise to drive catalytic SPS improvementsin developing and least developed countries,and influencing SPS capacity development morebroadly.Though the world seemed to stop,trade in foodclearly could not.Reflecting on this key lesson,the STDF strengthened its position as a thoughtleader in promoting the use of internationalstandards as well as a provider of partnership-focused interventions to strengthen SPS capacityas a global public good.3ANNUAL REPORT 20202020 highlights68%12 2 6 25 47 7of new project/PPG resourcesbenefit LDCs(above 40%target)donors provide contributionstotalling US$5,955,479Working

caused disruptions to theimplementation and delivery of STDFs projects andPPGs in several ways.While individual projects havehad to manage diverse risks in the past,from naturaldisasters to political strife,COVID-19 was exceptionalin that it affected all STDFs project operationssimultaneously.In addition to the impact on projectdelivery,the pandemic also caused wide-rangingchallenges to the overall context in which STDF projectsoperate in countries and regions,provoking substantialshocks to agricultural production,distribution andtrade,as well as SPS management functions such asinspection and surveillance.frequent and targeted communications with keystakeholders to maintain trust and commitment.In general,earlier stage grants,which had less timeto put in place effective working relationships andprocesses before March 2020,faced greater challenges.Projects that relied on international experts,such aslaboratory staff,to deliver specialized training took timeto adapt.Similarly,projects that were built on regionalapproaches and cooperation required more time toaccommodate new needs and demands.ADAPTION ACROSS Women generally shoulder most caring responsibilitiesand are already less able to access agricultural inputs,From the start,the Secretariat maintained closecontact with the organizations and consultantsimplementing STDF projects and PPGs on theimplications of the crisis and proactively providedadvice and guidance.Decisions were taken on anongoing basis on how best to adapt and ensurecontinuity on planning,delivery and spending.Projectwork plans and budgets were revised.Specificadaptation measures included:training on the useof internet and video conferencing,adapting fieldactivities to social distancing,advancing on desk-basedactivities and studies,increased use of nationalconsultants and hybrid arrangements,and ensureservices,and markets.Because of this,it is likely thatthe pandemic even more greatly affected the abilityof women to benefit from project activities.OngoingCOVID-19 restrictions on cross-border movementsmay also have pushed traders,including women,intoinformal trade.More evidence is needed to betterunderstand these effects.STDFs PROJECTSand PPGsThis report provides a snapshot of four ongoing projectsand how they navigated the complexities of COVID-19in 2020.It also includes detailed information about 3projects completed in 2020 as well as 5 projects and 7PPGs approved.SNAPSHOT OF ONGOING PROJECTSPROJECTS COMPLETED IN 2020PROJECTS AND PPGs APPROVED IN 20208ANNUAL REPORT 2020SNAPSHOT OF ONGOING PROJECTSEnhancing trade for cocoa farmersin Papua New GuineaQUICK PITCHTHE PROJECTFAST FACTSPapua New Guinea has rich cocoa resources and thecrop plays a significant role in the countrys economy.Importantly,it provides a critical source of income forsmallholder farmers who make up 11%of the population.However,challenges persist and steps need to be takenacross the full value chain to improve the productionand processing of cocoa.The project is based on the Papua New Guinea CocoaIndustry Strategic Plan 2016-2025 and supportsimprovements to food safety and quality managementin the cocoa value chain.Through this,it will aim topromote cocoa exports that benefit farmers in ruralcommunities and reduce poverty.Importantly,it willbe structured around collaborative public-privatepartnerships and looks to work closely with keyexporters like NGIP-Agmark and Outspan PNG Ltd,thetwo largest cocoa exporters in Papua New Guinea.new training moduleson Good AgriculturalPractices(GAP)developedTHE CHALLENGE3The majority of coastal provinces in Papua New Guineacan grow cocoa.This offers a livelihood for over151,000 households and more than one million people.Papua New Guineas cocoa,however,suffers frominconsistent quality as well as certain SPS risks suchas the presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs).This is often due to contamination as a resultof defective cocoa dryers that can allow smoke tocome into contact with cocoa beans.In 2019,theInternational Cocoa Organisation(ICCO)downgradedPNGs fine-flavour status from 90%to 70%due tosmoke-taint in its cocoa beans which affects themarket value of PNGs cocoa.These challengesassociated with the drying processes as well asthe potential presence of other elements such ascadmium,pesticide residues and ochratoxin A requirea tailored approach to ensure that the smallholderdriven value-chain can improve yield and quality andmanage critical SPS risks.COVID-19 posed significant challenges to projectimplementation.Lockdowns over the course of 2020strongly impacted the work plan and impedimentsto mobility hindered the procurement of materials,the supervision of the construction of driers andthe execution of training.Turnouts for the trainingsessions varied given the difficulty during thepandemic in meeting with group leaders who couldencourage smallholder farmers to attend.Adaptationsare being made to accommodate the new challengespresented by COVID-19.new stainless-steelcocoa dryersconstructedProgress was made,however,including the productionof new training modules on Good AgriculturalPractices(GAP)and post-harvest management,aswell as the construction of three new cocoa dryersthat use stainless steel kiln pipes instead of traditionalmild steel pipes.Stainless steel kiln pipes produceexcellent cocoa quality,use less firewood and are veryrobust.These new dryers will likely produce qualitysmokeless cocoa for several decades.Farmers andexporters are pleased with them and the hope is thatthey will become an industry standard.MORE INFO STDF/PG/553The training sessions carried out under the project have equipped farmers tomanage and
