The Association Française de Normalisation (AFNOR), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) member body for France, has submitted to ISO a proposal for a new field of ISO technical activity on Social Responsibility, with the following scope statement:
Standardization in the field of Social Responsibility to provide guidance and framework to all types of organizations, regardless of their size, activity or location. It allows organizations to challenge their own practices, define their corporate social responsibility and thus devise strategies to enhance their contribution to sustainable development.
Anyone wishing to review the proposal can request a copy by contacting ANSI’s ISO Team (isot@ansi.org), with a submission of comments to Steve Cornish (scornish@ansi.org) by close of business on Friday, June 5, 2020

At the moment, we find only a few ISO consensus products incorporated by reference into the best practice literature that affects the cost of US education communities. It is wise to follow the action, however, because these products can inform higher level policy pronouncements. We maintain all ISO consensus products on the standing agenda of our Global teleconferences. See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting; open to everyone.
