Home / Overview
The UN Global Compact is the world's largest corporate citizenship and sustainability initiative. Since its official launch on 26 July 2000, the initiative has grown to more than 6700 participants, including over 5200 businesses in 130 countries around the world. It is a network-based initiative with the Global Compact Office and six UN agencies at its core.
The Global Compact involves all relevant social actors: companies, whose actions it seeks to influence; governments, labour, civil society organizations, and the United Nations, the world's only truly global political forum, as an authoritative convener and facilitator.
This section of the Global Compact website offers a comprehensive, searchable database of all Global Compact participants, including links to companies' annual Communications on Progress (COP).
