In so doing, the corporation joins thousands of organiza- tions around the world—including 189 in Canada—that are committed to responsible and transparent business prac- tices to create a better world. The Global Compact calls for companies to align their strategies with the United Nations’ universal principles that advance societal goals in the areas of human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption. It also requires or- ganizations to take concrete actions to advance the 2030 Global Agenda, which encompasses the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Lastly, in joining the Global Compact, organizations must publish an annual report de- tailing the actions they took to operate responsibly and support the SDGs.
