Directory for consumer interest participation
As part of its ongoing strategic objective to ensure the involvement of stakeholders, ISO has developed a project to research and share information about how its members involve consumer interests in their policy and technical work.
ISO members provide information on their consumer interest participation structures and mechanisms through an on-line input form (password protected) which can be updated at any time. This section reflects that information through a specialized on-line directory. The ISO members that have provided this type of data appear in the list below.
For each country on the list, headings appear where the ISO member has provided relevant data. The page shows the contact person for consumer matters and types of consumer participation in its policy and/or governance committees. For specific priority areas of consumer interest, the page shows consumer representation on international ISO or IEC technical committees (or regional committees), national technical committees or mirror committees, and other types of consultation. Finally, the page shows specific ways the ISO member supports consumer interest involvement in its organization, along with publicly available resources for consumer stakeholders.
Finally, a separate, interactive query page allows searches of the ISO work programme for published standards and standards under development, in areas of priority interest (also see the section Areas of focus within standards for more details).
