The Impact of Collaboration
The UN Global Compact is the foremost corporate sustainability initiative with over 18,000 participating companies and more than 3,800 non-business signatories operating in over 160 countries. The integration of action around the Sustainable Development Goals—such as Zero Hunger, Good Health and Well-being, and Sustainable Cities and Communities—provides a robust structure for organizations to work together in a concerted effort towards achieving shared global goals.
