Internationally recognized standards for roads, bridges, electrical and communications networks

The objective is to implement the certification framework defined by the network for high-quality infrastructure projects.

Those who build roads, bridges, electricity and communications networks must comply with internationally recognized standards regarding financial transparency, environmental and social sustainability, climate resilience and inclusion.

Infrastructure projects that meet these criteria carry less risk and are therefore more attractive to investors.

This helps resolve the profound infrastructure financing difficulties in developing countries.
