Workshops and Training
The Global Compact Office collaborates with UN agencies, Global Compact Local Networks and other stakeholders to organize worldwide implementation workshops and training sessions for Global Compact participants.
Progress & Value Workshop Series
The Progress and Value Workshop series is designed to prepare participants as mentors in their own organizations and also in their local networks, and to deepen their understanding of both implementation of the ten principles and methods for communicating progress. The workshops have been held in Barcelona, Buenos Aires and Mexico City. The target audience is a mix of representatives from local networks, company participants and other organizations working to support the implementation of the ten principles.
The workshops concentrate on:
- Enabling a real commitment to internalize the ten principles and to contribute to the broader development goals of the United Nations; and
- Understanding the value of assessing and sharing information on progress towards those goals.
Several "P&V" workshops will be convened around the world in 2008. The workshops are open to all Global Compact participants.
