We are seeking feedback on a new core document “Validation and Verification Standard”.

The aim of the validation and verification standard is to provide a roadmap for more efficient and consistent project assessments. This document provides the requirements and procedures for Gold Standard Validation and Verification Bodies (GS VVBs) and Certification Bodies (CBs) to successfully carry out validation and verification for standalone project activities and Programme of Activities (PoAs) under Gold Standard for the Global Goals (GS4GG) and all earlier versions of Gold Standard.
