This document outlines the project to revise and integrate the ISEAL Codes of Good Practice into a single holistic ISEAL Code of Good Practice during the course of 2022-23.
In 2025 ISEAL Innovations Fund commissioned research into how voluntary sustainability systems go about scaling innovative practices. This study explored how to close the 'pilot-to-scale' gap. It identifies six main pathways through which sustainability innovations can scale. These include integrating an innovation into public policy or industry standards, embedding it within organisational operations, expanding it through partnerships or open platforms, driving uptake through market incentives, or embedding it in widely used digital systems and platforms.
