How are organizations tackling the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals?

The GCNC surveyed different organizations across 36 industries to gauge the awareness of the global goals, which goals Canadian companies are prioritizing, and how they are reacting.

All companies, large and small, are vulnerable to corruption, and the potential costs when they fail to combat corruption effectively in all its forms are considerable. The rapid development of rules of corporate governance in Canada and around the world is prompting companies to incorporate anti-corruption measures as part of their efforts to promote corporate sustainability, mitigate reputational risks, and protect the interests of their stakeholders.

This report looks at the ways in which companies can embed the United Nations Global Compact 10 Principles into their supply and value chain management structures by establishing internal buy-in and engagement programs.

This guidance document can be used by both extractive and non-extractive companies to fully understand the UN Voluntary Principles framework’s KPIs and the audit protocol. This resource can also guide companies to measure, improve, and create greater stakeholder confidence in their security and human rights programs.
