Council Commitment Platform
Council members commit to specific, measurable actions to operate their organizations in ways that advance a more inclusive capitalism. Members share their actions and experiences here for others to learn from and put forth their own actions. The result is a community of ideas and learning that advances the most impactful private sector ESG practices at scale.
We invite you to explore the platform and get ideas for actions you can take for inclusive capitalism. Use the dropdown menus above the table to search by industry, region, UN Sustainable Development Goal, or sustainable value creation pillar.
