This report summarises key discussions and insights from an ISEAL partner workshop held in Accra, Ghana, in June 2026, supported by the UK Government’s FGMC programme. Focusing on Ghana's cocoa and timber sectors, the report explores how to strengthen the credibility and market recognition of national sustainability systems. It examines the role of traceability within these systems, how national systems, voluntary initiative, and demand-side requirements might better complement one another, and provides recommendations for next steps.
