In the context of an ongoing environmental crisis and pressure on our planet’s resources, the search for ways to sustainable development becomes increasingly relevant. One of the ways to ensure sustainability is the concept of “net zero”, that is, the aspiration to completely eliminate negative impacts on the environment.
International Workshop Agreement (IWA) standards play an important role in achieving this goal. But who develops these standards, and what is their purpose?
IWA Standard Developers
International IWA standards are developed within the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), which brings together national standard organizations from around the world. The development occurs during workshops where experts from all over the world participate. These standards include recommendations and procedures that help organizations and individual users act in accordance with the Sustainable Development Goals.
Purpose of Development
The aim of developing IWA standards is to create universal guidelines that help organizations and individuals achieve specific goals in the field of Sustainable Development. This can be applied to various aspects, including energy, construction, manufacturing, transport, and even education.
