Digital Harmonized Regulatory Framework of Green Trade Based on Transparency and Interoperability
In response to stringent green trade regulatory requirements,,port departments need to use data and digital technologies to strike a better balance between regulatory resource input and regulatory burden.Given the large variety and scale of stakeholders involved in the greening and digitalization of international supply chains,there is a heightened need for IT system interoperability to achieve an effective transparency and coordination mechanism.By analyzing information entropy and information gain,six interoperability integration inferences are formed,resulting in a harmonized transparency framework that includes six key components:Digital Traceability Events(DTE),Digital Product Passport(DPP),Digital Conformity Credential(DCC),Digital Identity Anchor(DIA),Identifier/Identity(ID),and Sustainability Vocabulary Catalog(SVC).The effectiveness of this transparency framework is broadly demonstrated through two pilot projects by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe(UNECE).
