Governance and anti-corruption are fundamental pillars of sustainable business practices. For companies and global organizations, developing the right approaches and practices in these areas not only helps uphold ethical values, but also contributes to creating a positive and lasting impact on society. Celebrating its 20th anniversary in September last year, Principle 10 of the UN Global Compact: Anti-Corruption highlights this responsibility by promoting a zero-tolerance approach to corruption and encouraging the adoption of good governance practices.

In this episode of Talks with Global Governance Leaders, moderated by Gizem Argüden Oskay, Board Member of the Argüden Governance Academy, we discuss the importance of combating corruption and the work undertaken by the UN Global Compact in this field with Sir Mark Moody-Stuart, one of the architects of Principle 10 of the UN Global Compact: Anti-Corruption, and Cristina Ritter, Head of Governance and Anti-Corruption at the UN Global Compact. Focusing on responsible leadership and the evolution of the UN Global Compact, our conversation explores global practices and collaborative efforts under Principle 10 to advance anti-corruption and good governance.

We also discuss the UN Global Compact’s strategies for working with businesses to strengthen transparency, promote integrity across supply chains, and address barriers to effective anti-corruption efforts. The conversation further highlights how peer-to-peer learning across different regions and sectors can accelerate the adoption of good governance practices, while offering valuable insights into the challenges encountered along the way.
