A few more … words on the UN Global Compact:
“What is the UN Global Compact?
The Global Compact is a framework for businesses that are committed to aligning their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labour, the environment and anti-corruption .”
(http://www.unglobalcompact.org/AboutTheGC/index.html)
In particular, we have become a member of the Global Compact Academic Network:
"The Global Compact Academic Network is open to all academic institutions … which are committed to implementing the ten principles of the Global Compact in their organization and which are willing to collaborate as strategic partners in the progress of the initiative."
