Description of the Sub-Subject: The Global Compact (UN)

The Global Compact was launched in 1999 at the Davos Forum by the former UN Secretary-General, Kofi Annan. It is a voluntary “Pact” based on ten principles between the United Nations and companies for which they adopt shared values in the struggle against the corruption, environmental protection, compliance with the labour standards and protection of human rights.

The final objective of the Global Compact is that humanity will benefit from the effects of Globalisation and to promote ethical principles and values in the global market.

The ten principles of the Global Compact are based on:

1. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
2. The Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work (International Labour Organisation)
3. The Rio Declaration on Environment and Development
4. The Convention of the United Nations against the corruption

NOTE: The Global Compact is partly based on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which may lead to uncertainty about their acceptance in many Islamic Countries where they may have preferred some reference to the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam.
