Good Business International, Inc. Joins the United Nations Global Compact

Good Business International, Inc., otherwise known as GoodB, has officially joined the ranks of the United Nations Global Compact. The UN Global Compact was formed in 2000 by former UN Secretary General Kofi Anan to join civil society, the business community, and the United Nations initiatives together for more effective action.

The United Nations is dedicated not only to world harmony, but has a strong mission under the Universal Declaration of Human Rights – which the United Nations was founded upon – to champion human rights the world over.  The Global Compact has determined Ten Universal Principles that its programs are founded upon. Initiatives of the UN Global Compact include eliminating enslaved labor and child labor. The Compact endeavors to establish anti-corruption laws throughout the global community and to safeguard those who voices are often lost among the loud call for profit-at-any-cost.

The United Nations Global Compact is dedicated to establishing and developing fair labor and corruption-free business practices throughout the world, echoing the mission of Good Business International, Inc. GoodB is proud and honored to be part of that mission and to support the Ten Universal Principles of the United Nations Global Compact.
