Current Affairs - Important Days - Discussion

World Standards Day is observed every year on October 14 to recognise the efforts of experts and organizations in developing international standards that facilitate global trade, safety, and innovation. The day is promoted by leading standardization bodies, including the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). Each year, a theme highlights the importance of standards in improving global quality of life; for 2025, the theme is “A Shared Vision for a Better World,” emphasizing collaboration and the role of standards in creating a safer and more efficient world.
