CCC Reference Guide on Code Implementation & Verification
Section 5. Code-Related Activities in a Global Context

UN Global Compact

The Global Compact seeks to promote responsible corporate citizenship through a purely voluntary initiative with two objectives. The Global Compact is not a regulatory instrument - it does not "police", enforce or measure the behavior or actions of companies. Rather, the Global Compact relies on public accountability, transparency and the enlightened self-interest of companies, labour and civil society to initiate and share substantive action in pursuing the principles upon which the Global Compact is based.

The Global Compact offers facilitation and engagement through several mechanisms: Policy Dialogues, Learning, Country/Regional Networks, and Projects.
