United Nations Global Compact (China)

The United Nations Global Compact works to mobilize sustainable businesses and stakeholders globally to create the world we want. This is exactly our vision. To achieve this, the UN Global Compact helps companies:

• Incorporate the ten principles of the Global Compact on human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption into corporate strategy and operations to ensure responsible business conduct;
• Take strategic action to advance broader societal goals, such as the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, with a focus on collaboration and innovation.

UN Global Compact China Strategy aims to accelerate and scale the global collective impact of Chinese businesses by upholding the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact in delivering the SDGs. 

The China strategy identifies seven key focus areas where UN Global Compact will conduct its work to maximize impact. The seven areas cover all Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact with special focus on: combat climate change, reduce inequalities, advance decent work, take collective actions against corruption, engage private sector through the Belt and Road Initiative to accelerate the SDGs, strengthen South-South cooperation through China-Africa business collaboration on the SDGs, and foster business innovation and SDG partnerships through the Global Development Initiative.
