The Global Compact Local Network Nigeria has the mission to promote the United Nations Global Compact’s 10 Principles and SDGs in Nigeria, as well as contribute to the implementation of the United Nations’ broader development goals
Economic growth alone is not enough to ensure equity, social progress and to eradicate poverty. All employees around the world should have decent working conditions.
Human rights are universal and every person around the world deserves to be treated with dignity and equality.
Corruption is a considerable obstacle to economic and social development around the world. It has negative impacts on sustainable development and particularly affects poor communities.
The world today is facing unprecedented, interconnected environmental challenges in areas including climate change, water, energy, biodiversity and agriculture.
Strong healthy societies go hand-in-hand with strong markets. Businesses increasingly see that growing inequality stifles growth and contributes to political and social instability where they operate.
Extreme poverty rates have been cut by more than half since 1990. While this is a remarkable achievement, approximately 836 million people still live at or below $1.25 per day.
No matter how large or small, and regardless of their industry, all companies can contribute to the SDGs.
