IEC Global Impact Fund – Second Project
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Global Impact Fund advances the IEC vision for “a safer and more efficient world” and demonstrates the catalytic impact of international standards and conformity assessment (CA) systems in addressing many of today’s social and environmental challenges. The Fund’s mission is to promote the application of international standards and conformity assessment systems by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and positively impact the capacity of IEC Members and Affiliates to sustainably address global environmental, social and economic challenges.
The scope of the second IEC Global Impact Fund project, “A path to health, sustainability and development: Accelerating access to clean cooking through conformance to international standards,” is to support an SME-led project on electric cooking in Asia, with the specific country or countries of implementation selected through consultation with stakeholders and based on the quality of responses received.
