The Chamber has been awarded the ISAR HONOURS prize by UNCTAD for 2026, receiving the distinction after passing all evaluation filters through the award's decision voting system in Geneva.

The ISAR HONOURS prize aims to raise awareness and promote exchange of international best practices in sustainability and reporting on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as an integral part of companies' non-financial corporate reporting. Since its introduction in 2018, roughly 450 initiatives from over 60 countries across six geographic regions have been nominated for the award.

According to the announcement, the prize is international recognition for the Chamber's efforts to increase awareness and implementation of these standards within the private sector.
