Where possible, TESS GEIE will engage in EU-funded projects supporting responsible export models that prioritise the primacy of people, transparency, dialogue, solidarity, environmental protection, and adherence to international law.
By 2030 : Conduct audits for 70% of members’ export clients, covering 80% of export volumes. Define a common set of intra-European export standards to be adopted by all members.
