ISO standards to promote sustainable development
More than ever, both consumers and manufacturers recognize the impact of their choices and actions.
In the past, many of the costs of doing business were hidden, but now ISO standards allow them to be quantified and taken into account in decision-making processes. This means more responsible businesses.
ISO standards allow companies to plan their future growth, meeting consumer expectations. They contribute to product transparency and apply best practices to limit their environmental impact.
Below, learn more about the most commonly used models of sustainability and social responsibility, who develops them, and new ongoing projects.
What are the UN goals for sustainable development?
In 2015, the UN launched an ambitious 15-year plan to address some of the most pressing issues facing the world.
By supporting the adoption of ISO standards, we contribute to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The economic, environmental, and social dimensions are addressed directly by ISO standards.
Our goal is to extend these benefits as widely as possible.
