Certifications

The LWF commits to demonstrating its accountability in every aspect of its work. This is the reason why we regularly request independent recognized organisms to audit our work. The certification process provides organizations like the LWF with independent, external assessment, leading to issuing certifications of compliance to the higher standards.
