UEBT

Union for Ethical Biotrade (UEBT)

Our vision
A world in which all people and biodiversity thrive.

Our mission
We work to regenerate nature and secure a better future for people through ethical sourcing of ingredients from biodiversity.
UEBT is a non-profit association that promotes sourcing with respect. We work to regenerate nature and secure a better future for people through ethical sourcing of ingredients from biodiversity. We aim to contribute to a world in which all people and biodiversity thrive.

Our approach
We set good practices for how companies and their suppliers source specialty ingredients for the food, cosmetics and natural pharmaceutical sectors.
We are internationally recognised for our work advancing business contributions to sustainable development goals.

The good practices we set act as a guidepost for how companies and their suppliers should harvest, collect or grow ingredients from biodiversity in a way that is respectful of the local environment and the people who call it home. We call this "sourcing with respect."
