Message from HRH Prince of Wales
Speaking by video link in the Great Hall of the Parliament in June 2011, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales gave a glowing endorsement to those within business and industry who join programmes such as the UNGC and the UNGC Network in Australia
It is essential that those who understand the importance of responsible behaviour have the necessary strength and capacity to deliver real change. Building this expertise requires the establishment of networks and the building of trust between different companies.
I know that many of you are members of the Global Compact Network Australia, which has now grown to become Australia’s strongest voluntary corporate citizenship initiative.
I have always believed that bringing together business leaders from different sectors into environments where they can share best practice and learn from each others’ mistakes is the key to raising the bar.
Understanding that responsible business is as much about cooperation as competition is crucial if we are to move forward.
HRH, Prince of Wales, June 16, 2011
"I know that many of you are members of the Global Compact Network Australia, which has now grown to become Australia’s strongest voluntary corporate citizenship initiative."
