Goals / Remit
ISEAL is the global membership organisation for ambitious, collaborative and transparent sustainability systems. We’re driving collective efforts to tackle the most pressing sustainability issues and create a world where markets are a force for good.
From climate change and deforestation to inequality and persistent poverty, the world needs scalable and effective solutions. We support sustainability systems and their partners in delivering solutions to these critical challenges, so that companies and governments can meet their sustainability commitments and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
We work to improve the impacts of our members and their partners by:
defining credible practice based on emerging global consensus
convening forums for collaboration, sharing of experience, and collective action
delivering expertise, advice and training
facilitating and promoting innovation to strengthen sustainability systems.Main EU files targeted
