📢 It’s World Consumer Rights Day! 🌍

💡 This year’s theme, “A Just Transition to Sustainable Living”, highlights the importance of creating a fair and sustainable future for all. Consumer voices are key to driving this transition.

👉 When consumers actively participate in the standards development process, they bring real-world experience that technical experts and industry representatives might overlook.

Their input helps ensure that standards address safety, usability, and accessibility — leading to better products and services that genuinely serve the public interest.
