What is ISO 37101?

ISO 37101 is an internationally recognized standard that outlines the requirements and provides guidance for creating a management system aimed at supporting sustainable development in communities. Its purpose is to help communities build a framework that promotes long-term improvements in social, economic, and environmental aspects. The standard can be applied to communities of all sizes, encouraging smarter, more efficient, and more resilient infrastructure, and enhancing overall quality of life.

ISO 37101 addresses a wide range of sustainability topics such as governance, education, innovation, healthcare, interdependence, safety, and inclusiveness. It also allows flexibility to include additional issues relevant to the specific community.

Why Is ISO 37101 Important for Communities?

The increasing strain on limited natural resources—such as freshwater, forests, and fertile land—highlights the urgent need for sustainable living. Our current consumption and development patterns are unsustainable and could leave future generations to face the consequences of environmental depletion.

This urgency aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including goals like Zero Hunger, Affordable and Clean Energy, and Sustainable Cities and Communities. ISO 37101 supports these global objectives by offering a structured approach to sustainable development at the community level.

Why Pursue ISO 37101 Certification?
