Counting down to #WorldStandardsDay2020

Counting down to...

In line with this year’s World Standards Day theme of “Protecting the Planet”, we launched an ISO global campaign on #sustainablecities to count down to 14 October.

#WorldStandardsDay2020

2020 has been a year of adversity: the #covid19 pandemic has shaken us to our core. Before us is the challenge to rebuild our economies and safeguard life while preserving our planet for generations to come. Numerous opportunities for sustainability and resilience are presented as cities face overpopulation and pressure points surrounding transport, sanitation, energy, food and security.

Inspired by this global challenge, we started counting down to World Standards Day one hundred days before, with a weekly post on how standards can help create #sustainablecities to protect the planet, support the economy and improve quality of life.
