The COP describes all the actions and projects carried out by our Cabinet since January 2006 in the scope of our commitmment to UN values and principles. We developped several interesting projects in the fields of ethical management and evironmentally friendly practices and we would like to share them with other members. We also would like to offer the UNGC Office our concrete solutions to implement UNGC principles in a more binding manner.
Our next step will be to establish solid partnerships throughout Europe and the Middle East to offer these region our expertise in the fields of responsible management and educational projects. We would like to stir up interest in these countries for the initiatives launched through the UNGC.
