2025 is a milestone year for women in science! 🔬 This year marks 10 years of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science and 30 years since the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action—two major moments in the fight for gender equality and women’s empowerment. Yet women and girls still face systemic barriers in science. Closing the gap means challenging stereotypes, advancing women and fostering inclusive, diverse and equitable environments. It’s time to turn commitments into action! #IDWGS2025 #WomenInScience #GenderEquality #InclusionDiversityEquity #IECforSDGs #GirlsinSTEM #WomeninSTEM

Emerging technologies are evolving at breakneck speed. Standards ensure they do so safely and efficiently, but keeping up with changes can be a challenge. That’s where insight matters. Commented Versions (CMVs) don’t just show you the changes between the current and previous edition of an IEC Standard —they explain why! Designed with expert commentary, CMVs give you the context behind revisions, helping innovators and engineers apply standards with clarity and confidence. Because when you understand the why you unlock smarter design, faster implementation and a competitive edge in tomorrow’s tech landscape! 🔎 Curious? Find out more about CMVs here: bit.ly/3NL9r3T #IECStandards #IECVAP #IECValueAddedProducts #IECEmergingTech #Innovation

📣 New tool to combat deepfakes is here! Find out more: bit.ly/42A96uk Aimed at increasing trust in shared media through identification and authentication, JPEG Trust is a standard that can enable a secure and reliable way of tagging media and any modifications. It features ‘trust indicators’ around authenticity, provenance and integrity, meaning users of content can see where it has come from and if it has been tampered with or not. The first version of the standard, Core Foundations, has just been published, and it is expected to evolve over time as technologies evolve, too. #IECEmergingTech #DeepFake #IECStandards #Innovation #FridayGadget

The IEC Mentoring Programme now open for applications! Connect. Learn. Grow. The programme bridges IEC members with a mentee (IEC member country or IEC affiliate country) to foster the exchange of invaluable knowledge and experience. 🔹 Mentor’s role: Mentors (IEC National Committees) guide the mentee, sharing best practices and offering insights on IEC participation and national structures. While they provide mentorship, they respect the mentee's national autonomy. By participating, mentors strengthen global collaboration, expand their influence and enhance their leadership skills. They also gain recognition and fresh insights from their mentees. 🔹 Mentee benefits: Mentees can tailor their learning journey by choosing topics that resonate with their specific needs: ✅ Engaging stakeholders effectively ✅ Managing committees efficiently ✅ Adopting IEC Standards seamlessly ✅ Handling TC/SC secretariats proficiently. Get involved now: lnkd.in/e3fJvaiz #IEC #IECStandards #Mentoring #Leadership #Collaboration #Networking #ProfessionalGrowth #IECforSDGs 📷 Freepik

As solar PV systems become essential for meeting 2030 and 2050 carbon targets, the IEC System for Certification to Standards Relating to Equipment for Use in Renewable Energy Applications (IECRE) is preparing a new skills certification scheme to ensure qualified installation and maintenance worldwide—especially in emerging markets. George Kelly is the Secretary of IEC Technical Committee (TC) 82, which prepares standards for solar PV energy systems. He tells e-tech about the challenges and the new developments for solar PV systems in IECRE and what are the new areas of standardization for his TC.

Imagine a healthcare facility without power. This is the reality for many, affecting patient care, medical procedures and life-saving equipment. Energizing Healthcare—an event in Nairobi, Kenya, organised by SEforALL and partners—highlights the urgent need and best practices for providing healthcare facilities with reliable energy access. International standards and conformity assessment play a crucial role in two ways: 1️⃣ They ensure safe and reliable medical devices. 2️⃣ Turning the lights on is one thing—keeping them on is another. Standards help build sustainable, long-lasting energy solutions, ensuring that investments have maximum impact for years to come. The IEC Global Impact Fund and its partner Differ Community Power are showcasing how refurbished energy installations will transform seven primary schools and two maternity clinics in rural Kenya. Access to energy is access to healthcare. Let’s make it happen! #IECEnergyAccess #IECforSDGs #EnergyForHealth #SustainableInfrastructure #IEC #SEforALL #HealthcareInnovation #IECGlobalImpactFund
