Rotary and the UN Global Compact are pleased to announce a joint effort to work together to support UN goals through sustained and responsible business practices.

Rotary's humanitarian efforts are complimented by its emphases on high ethical standards in business and all the professions. Similarly, United Nations Global Compact is a public-private initiative for businesses worldwide committed to aligning their operations and strategies with ten principles in the areas of human rights, labor standards, the environment, and anti-corruption.
