Youth Leadership Group
ISO Environmental Management Youth Leadership Group
“Rapid technological advancement such as new AI platforms together with the speed and proficiency with which youth are adopting them makes young people powerful agents for change. Engaging the next generation of standards experts in the advancement of standards for environmental and climate action is more than an ethical obligation. It is a pre-pre-requisite for success.”

The ISO Environmental Management committee’s Strategic Business Plan 2023-2030 mirrors the broader ISO priority of ensuring diversity including geographic, gender, and generational diversity.
The objectives of the ISO Environmental Management committee Youth Leadership Group are:
to expose young people to the international standards system and its role in advancing climate and sustainability action;
to provide young people with skills in environmental management, finance, communications and policy-making that enable them to engage effectively in environmental initiatives; and
to empower young people to analyze and produce materials that support the activities of the ISO Environmental Management committee and policymakers in their countries.
