Pension fund disinvests from Chinese Global Compact participant following human rights violations in Darfur

PGGM…has decided to disinvest from PetroChina because of its involvement in human rights violations in Darfur, Sudan…PGGM had been engaging with Petrochina officials since August 2007 over environmental and human rights issues linked to its activities in Sudan. Last Friday, PGGM finally decided to disinvest from PetroChina. Interestingly, PetroChina became a Global Compact participant in August 2007…The Global Compact should show some leadership and suspend PetroChina’s membership. How can a company involved in human rights violations in Darfur possibly abide by the human rights principles of the Global Compact? It is clear that PetroChina is breaching its pledge to the Global Compact.
