Рекомендации K Метрологическое обеспечение оценки соответствия и испытаний
Metrology ensures the uniformity of measurements and their metrological traceability to the International System of Units (SI). It allows manufacturers to produce products more accurately more quickly and to a higher standard. It is the key cornerstone to international standardization and the quality infrastructure in general which contributes to the facilitation of trade. This recommendation and its guidelines establish the basis of metrological assurance of conformity assessment and testing and its optimum use in international exchanges. It further provides guidance for economies that have not yet implemented a robust national metrology system.

Foreword
Nine years ago in Addis Ababa the global community agreed an agenda to enable countries to mobilize and align the financial resources needed to achieve the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Preface
Financing for Development is at a crossroads. This 9th Report of the Inter-agency Task Force on Financing for Development published as we embark on preparations for the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development (FfD 4) to be held from 30 June to 3 July 2025 in Spain paints a sobering picture.
Executive summary
Financing challenges are at the heart of the current sustainable development crisis. Yet financing is also key to turning our fortunes around and getting back on track. The Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development next year in Spain provides a unique opportunity to reform financing at all levels to close the gap between aspiration and financing.
Report of the Inter-agency Task Force on Financing for Development 2024
This report finds that the world is facing a sustainable development crisis and that financing challenges are at the heart of the crisis and imperil the SDGs and climate action. It notes that the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development in 2025 will be a last chance to correct course if we want to achieve the SDGs by the 2030 deadline. It calls for urgently closing financing gaps through an investment push for closing policy and architecture gaps to make the international financial architecture fit for purpose in a crisis-prone world and for closing credibility gaps translating rhetoric into action to rebuild trust in multilateralism.
