Emerging to the forefront of sustainable production and
consumption are a promising and rapidly evolving concept known as
Voluntary Standard Systems (VSS). They encompass the three pillars
of sustainability social, environmental and economic aspects and
consequently they can be considered as a tool, which makes
sustainable development visible. Currently, they are becoming a
significant element in international trade and in the promotion of
sustainable development strategies, especially in the context of
globalised markets and supply chains.
This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the current VSS
concepts: from their nature and functioning, to the future outlook
for their development. It places VSS in the broader context of
global development issues and challenges, including development
policy and international sustainability commitments, progress
towards achieving green economy and meeting climate protection
targets. The volume contains also a representative selection of
case studies which demonstrate their wide range of application in
different sectors of the economy."
