In this webinar, Dr Carl Stephen Patrick Hunter will discuss ‘How do British standards play a wider role for fire safety globally?’ Specifically, the webinar focuses on the following:
The Government’s Integrated Review of 2021 places Trade & Finance at the heart of British foreign Policy for the first time in 200 years. The UK is a global leader in exporting: the 2nd largest in the export of services and 5th largest overall. Exporting comprises 30% of our GDP. National prosperity generates national stability and security. It finances our collective security which enables global security and stability and these are the pre-requisites of global prosperity, a UK national interest.
British Standards generate ISO Standards and contribute to the Rules-based International System which has generated the greatest levels f global prosperity since 1945. The principles of this were enshrined in the Atlantic Charter and this year renewed by President Biden and Prime Minister Johnson. The UK and USA created our world today, and this renewal places the Special Relationship at the helm of global stability once again. It has been reinforced by this month’s AUKUS Agreement between the UK, USA and Australia, and UAUK will be the UK’s second Special Relationship overall, aiming to stabilise the Indo-Pacific where 50% of global trade will shortly occur but which is now a highly contested region.
By the end of the webinar, you’ll be all caught up on ‘How do British standards play a wider role for fire safety globally?’
