UNIDO and ISO collaboration

A UNIDO-ISO memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed in December 2003 to jointly

assist those developing and transition countries, focusing on the use of standardization, to

enhance industrial development and participate in world trade.

In the MoU implementation, UNIDO supports a number of NSBs towards ISO membership,

fostering their participation in ISO standardization activities, helping them harmonize national

standards with ISO standards, and also assisting end-users and stakeholders (businesses,

governments and consumers…) in implementing ISO standards

Both organizations participate in each other’s awareness-building events and meetings

related to standards and conformity assessment, e.g. the ISO-lead DEVCO-CASCO

workshops

UNIDO and ISO have prepared a joint publication entitled «

Fast forward – NSBs in

developing countries

» aimed to provide guidance on how to manage the national

standardization process

Na implementação do MoU, a UNIDO apóia um número de ONN no sentido da adesão à

ISO, promovendo a sua participação nas atividades de normalização da ISO,

ajudando-os a harmonizar as normas nacionais com as normas ISO, e também auxiliando usuáriajudando-os

standardization process

A UNIDO e a ISO prepararam uma publicação conjunta intitulada " Fast forward – NSBs in developing

countries " destinada a fornecer orientações sobre como gerir o processo de normalização nacional

Several other areas of cooperation, e.g. climate change, food safety management

systems, standards and technical regulations, etc. are envisaged in the future

Várias outras áreas de cooperação, e.x. mudança climática, sistemas de gestão de segurança

alimentar, sistemas de gestão, normas e regulamentos técnicos, etc estão previstas para o futuro.
