Normative Framework

A normative framework is a structured set of guidelines, principles, or standards that define what is considered acceptable, proper, or desirable within a specific context—such as a profession, industry, or society. It helps establish rules for behavior, decision-making, and responsibilities, ensuring consistency and guiding individuals or organizations toward ethical and effective actions. Essentially, it provides a "moral compass" or blueprint for how things should be done, promoting fairness, accountability, and integrity within the given environment.
