June 9th 2024 marks World Accreditation Day (#WAD2024), a global initiative established by ILAC and IAF to promote the value of accreditation.
This year’s theme, Accreditation: Supporting the Future of Global Trade focuses on how accreditation supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The WAD 2024 poster was created by Japhet Tolosa Celis and Jazzy April Macogue Tolosa and is the result of a competition run by ILAC and IAF. You can find more information on the design and the creator here.
As in previous years, a Joint Statement from the ILAC and IAF Chairs is available as well as a brochure and video to promote the event.
WAD 2024 Virtual Event
IAF and ILAC will also be holding a virtual event on 09 June 2024 and we invite you to this online celebration for World Accreditation Day 2024!
