BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS , UNITED STATES, July 23, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- MEGA International, a leading SaaS software company in enterprise architecture, announces its membership in the United Nations Global Compact, the largest international initiative in favor of sustainable development and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Through this voluntary adherence to the universal principles of the Global Compact, MEGA is committed to strengthening its actions in favor of a sustainable business model that considers social and environmental issues. — Luca de Risi, CEO of MEGA International
Launched in 2000 by the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the United Nations Global Compact calls on companies to implement and promote ten universal principles concerning four themes: human rights, labor, the environment, and the fight against corruption. With over 20,000 businesses and nonprofit organizations and 62 local networks, it is the largest corporate sustainability initiative in the world. The Global Compact Network France, its official representative, brings together more than 2,000 companies (60% of which are SMEs) and 100 nonprofit organizations around CSR and sustainable development, supporting the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals.
“By formalizing its commitment to the United Nations Global Compact, MEGA aligns its CSR approach with the methodology implemented since 2023, based on the Sustainable Development Goals Compass,” explains Olivia Ouadia, Communications and CSR Manager at MEGA.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a global call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that all people live in peace and prosperity by 2030. To achieve these objectives, all public and private stakeholders, including enterprises, must be mobilized.
Taking into account all 17 Sustainable Development Goals, MEGA has identified six as priorities, in line with its core activities: Quality Education (4), Gender Equality (5), Decent Work and Economic Growth (8), Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure (9), Responsible Consumption and Production (12), and Climate Action (13).
Membership in the Global Compact also involves the submission of a “Communication on Progress (CoP)” each year to report on the progress made in relation to the four major themes of the Global Compact and the Sustainable Development Goals.
