Mandated to monitor use and impact of Codex texts through the Codex Strategic Plan 2020–2025, in 2021, the Secretariat, in collaboration with FAO and World Health Organization (WHO) evaluation offices, began developing a mechanism to explore issues such as accessibility, relevance, and credibility concerning Codex standards. The 2022 survey, launched in September of that year, served as the pilot for the new monitoring program. The 2023 survey is already open for responses.
