🌐 ⁠Sanda Ojiambo, the Assistant Secretary-General and CEO of the United Nations Global Compact⁠, shines a spotlight on the world's largest corporate sustainability initiative and the driving force behind the ⁠Sustainable Development Goals⁠ (SDGs). With over 18,000 corporate participants spanning 160 countries, the UN Global Compact aligns businesses with principles in human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption.

🎙️ "The SDGs are the singular uniting force across all sectors, nations, and economies.”

The UN Global Compact stands as an unwavering pillar in the global landscape, however, the sobering truth is that only 15% of the SDGs are currently on track. Sanda Ojiambo shares her perspectives on why this is the case and outlines the necessary steps to drive progress.

🎙️ “The SDGs are the North Star for business.” She reaffirms the profound influence of the SDGs on the corporate world.

We explore critical topics such as the widening financial gap, currently estimated at $3.9 trillion, and the pivotal need for reform in multilateral development banks.

🤝 Our discussion extends to the transformative impact of the ⁠UN Global Compact's Ten Principles⁠, shaping responsible business practices in diverse industries.

🤝 We also uncover the potential of the ⁠UNGC Academy⁠, where companies seamlessly integrate the SDGs into their core strategies, further accelerating progress.

💡 Sanda Ojiambo unveils the UN Global Compact's new strategy, and the power of strategic partnerships in driving change.

🌍 Gain insights into the organization's Africa strategy, the influential role of Science-Based Targets, and the delicate equilibrium between the private and public sectors in fostering tangible change.

It is also an inspiring journey through Sanda Ojiambo's remarkable career and her tireless efforts to make a positive impact on our world.
