ODS 9 Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure

Goal 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation

Sustainable Development Goal 9 (SDG 9) aims to build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation. This goal is crucial for driving economic growth, creating employment opportunities, and developing new technologies to address global challenges. At ISO, we are committed to supporting SDG 9 through our standards, which provide frameworks and solutions that enhance industrial efficiency, promote innovation, and support the development of sustainable infrastructure.

How ISO Standards Support SDG 9

ISO standards play a vital role in supporting SDG 9 by addressing key aspects of industry, innovation, and infrastructure. Our standards help organizations improve their processes, foster innovation, and develop resilient and sustainable infrastructure. Here are some of the relevant standards:

ISO 55001: Asset management — Management systems — Requirements

• Specifies requirements for an integrated, effective asset management system, helping organizations optimize the lifecycle of their assets.
• Supports the development and maintenance of resilient infrastructure by improving asset performance, reducing risks, and enhancing long-term sustainability.
