ECOS | Environmental Coalition on Standards

  • An inclusive approach to European standards-making

    Standards are more than just a market tool, they directly impact people and the environment, which means an inclusive and multi-stakeholder approach that involves environmental stakeholders is crucial in shaping European standards that support a circular, sustainable, resilient, and competitive European economy.

  • Standards need to work for everyone – here’s how we do it

    World Standards Day this year focuses on the power of partnership and the impact of working together. The development of standards can enable meaningful collaboration between industries, governments, and civil society, but a lack of representation of diverse and relevant expertise from civil society organisations risks the adoption of standards which may not be fit for purpose.
