Contexte : la règlementation internationale sur les produits chimiques / pesticides

In particular, an understanding of the provisions of the Code of Conduct is essential in identifying violations in the marketing and use of pesticides– violations which unfortunately remain common in many developing countries today. The impacts on human health and the environment that may result from such violations can form the basis for important stories, increase pressure for proper implementation and build public awareness and greater accountability of officials.

Je ne suis pas sûre du sens de "stories" ici (scandales ?) et ne vois pas comment traduire l'expression demandée. Merci d'avance
