The World Jewellery Confederation (CIBJO) has formally reported to the UN Global Compact about activities and programmes that it undertook in support of the United Nations\u2019 international mission over the two-year period that started in September 2022.<\/p>\n
Described as the world\u2019s largest corporate sustainability and social responsibility initiative, with more than 20,000 business participants and other stakeholders in more than 167 countries, the UN Global Compact is a forum dedicated to encouraging commercial bodies and trade associations worldwide to adopt sustainable and socially responsible policies, and to report on their implementation. CIBJO has been a member of the UN Global Compact since November 2006.<\/p>\n
To maintain UN Global Compact membership, affiliated companies and organisations are required to issue formal reports every two years, called Communications on Engagement, describing actions undertaken to support human and labour rights, the environment and anti-corruption principles. These are made publicly available by the UN body and the member organisations.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe strongly support the UN Global Compact initiative, firmly believing that as a business community we have the capacity to improve the lives of all stakeholders, and the countries and communities in which they live,\u201d said Gaetano Cavalieri, CIBJO President. \u201cWe encourage all members of the jewellery, gemstone and precious metals industries to join the effort, independently and through the programmes we develop and promote.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
