About the Standards Committee

SVI is establishing a new Standards Committee to support the application of SVI’s Principles and Standards. Its purpose is to:  

  • Oversee the development of SVI’s methodology, training and assurance 

  • Review documents and processes that support the application of the Principles of Social Value 

  • Act as the due diligence body on all standards and guidance published under SVI’s name.  

The Committee will comprise 16 experienced social value practitioners who represent regions where SVI operates.  

A new body to reflect shifts in demand 

With the complete set of SVI Standards under a final consultation, SVI is shifting from producing more content to reviewing guidance and case studies that have been developed from across SVI’s community.  

As a result, SVI is replacing the Methodology Sub-Committee with a new group, the Standards committee, to accommodate this shift. 

Who can join the Standards Committee? 

SVI welcomes Level 2 and 3 Accredited Practitioners to apply for a position on the Standards Committee, as well as former members of the Methodology Sub-Committee.  

Commitment  

Involvement in the Standards Committee is estimated to take up to five working days a year. Please note that this is a voluntary position. 

More details of the expectations of the role can be found in this Terms of Reference.
