ODS 1 No Poverty

Goal 1: No Poverty
Ending Poverty in All Its Forms Everywhere

Sustainable Development Goal 1 (SDG 1) aims to end poverty in all its forms everywhere. This goal is fundamental to creating a more equitable and sustainable world. At ISO, we are dedicated to supporting SDG 1 through our standards, which provide frameworks and solutions that promote economic growth, improve working conditions, and enhance access to essential services.

How ISO Standards Support SDG 1

ISO standards play a vital role in supporting SDG 1 by addressing key aspects of poverty reduction and sustainable economic development. Our standards help organizations improve their operations, enhance safety, and promote fair practices, all of which contribute to poverty alleviation. Here are some of the relevant standards:

ISO 26000: Social Responsibility

• Provides guidance on how organizations can operate in a socially responsible way, contributing to sustainable development and poverty reduction.
• Supports the implementation of fair labor practices and decent work conditions, contributing to poverty reduction through improved livelihoods.

ISO 37101: Sustainable Development in Communities

• Provides a framework for improving the sustainability and resilience of communities, addressing various aspects of poverty.
• Supports the creation of job opportunities and improved living conditions at the local level.
