9Yards Communications, a fully integrated marcoms and production agency, headquartered in the UAE capital, Abu Dhabi, has today announced that it has joined the United Nations Global Compact initiative – a voluntary initiative for the development, implementation and disclosure of responsible business practices.
Launched in 2000, the UN Global Compact is the largest corporate sustainability initiative in the world, with more than 20,000 companies based in over 160 countries, and more than 60 Global Compact Networks.
By joining this initiative, 9Yards is demonstrating a clear and proactive step towards adopting and encouraging responsible business actions by aligning their operations and strategies with the ‘Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact’.
Based around four core themes, the UN Global Compact covers areas in human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption. In addition, it also aligns and is in support of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
As a participant of the initiative, 9Yards Communications has further encouraged its clients and others to learn more about the initiative and to stay updated on related activities, via its UN Global Compact page link: https://unglobalcompact.org/what-is-gc/participants/179798-9-Yards-Communications.
