Update on applications of the UN Guiding Principles Reporting Framework

On February 24, the launch of the UN Guiding Principles Reporting Framework in London drew a standing-room only crowd and featured strong affirmations of the Reporting Framework from the evening’s speakers, including UN Guiding Principles author John Ruggie, UK Minister Jo Swinson, Unilever Global Vice President Marcela Manubens and European Parliament Rapporteur on Corporate Responsibility Richard Howitt.

This update is to share with you the latest news on how various stakeholders are using the Reporting Framework to drive implementation of the Guiding Principles.
