Welcome to ISO26000: NPA

ISO 26000 is an International Standard (by the International Organisation for Standardization) elaborated to guide organisations on Social Responsibility. It is a consensus guidance document that provides support or a reference for all kinds of organisations in both private and public sectors both in developed and developing countries, as well as those who may be referred to as 'being in transition'.

In July 2010, at the 9th Plenary meeting of the ISO Working Group on Social Responsibility (ISO/WG/SR) held in Copenhagen, 450 participating experts and 210 observers from 99 ISO member countries which included Nigeria and 42 liaison organisations deliberated and ratified the Final draft standard. Six main stakeholder groups were represented: industry; government; labour; consumers: nongovernmental organizations; service, support, research and others.

Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) and her Knowledge Partner, ThistlePraxis Consulting (TPC) are pleased to invite your organisation to participate in the Nigeria Adoption Process as Technical Partner and/or Sponsor, scheduled to commence in April 2012.
