Additional information

This Sustainability Report provides information on how we comply with our corporate sustainability principles in the four dimensions social responsibility, ecological balance, political participation and economic capability by means of key figures and examples. It will be published every two years and integrates the Communication on Progress to the UN Global Compact and the environmental report.

The United Nations Global Compact (GC) aims to encourage corporate responsibility. Businesses undertake to voluntarily accept social and environmental responsibility and to translate into practice ten principles from the fields of human rights, labour standards, environmental protection and anti-corruption. As a member of the Global Compact, and a company whose work is geared across the board to international cooperation for sustainable development, GIZ is committed to upholding these principles. In its GC Progress Report GIZ lays out how it is meeting its voluntary commitments in terms of measures and outputs.
