We endorse and participate in external global commitments and initiatives that promote sustainable business practices. We engage in a series of external initiatives and strategic collaborations with relevant organisations and partners to support and inform our work on the most material sustainability issues. Collaboration across our supply chain as well as with other businesses and non-profit organisations is essential; the more we do together, the quicker we drive sustainable solutions. This chapter details some external initiatives and some of the most relevant strategic partners: it is not meant to be exhaustive.

Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil
United Nations Global Compact The United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) is a strategic policy initiative for businesses committed to aligning their operations and strategies with 10 universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption. We have been signatory since February 2010 and we measure our progress towards sustainability against its principles. Our GRI reporting also serves as a communication on progress (COP) towards the implementation of these principles and also achieving our sustainability targets. We are also involved with the UNGC Swiss Network, allowing us to participate in conferences and share best practices with other members. w ww.unglobalcompact.org
