Standards & Policy

The governance landscape we work within.

ITS governance research is informed by and referenced against leading global frameworks, standards bodies, and policy institutions. This page maps the landscape that shapes our work.

Our approach

We monitor developments across standards bodies, regulatory frameworks, and policy institutions - and build our governance research to align with and reference their evolving requirements. Where public consultations invite input, we respond with practitioner perspectives.
