The Global Compact is a direct initiative of the Secretary-General. The Global Compact involves all the relevant social actors : governments, who defined the principles on which the initiative is based; companies, whose actions it seeks to influence; labour, in whose hands the concrete process of global production takes place; civil society organizations, representing the wider community of stakeholders; and the United Nations, the world's only truly global political forum, as an authoritative convener and facilitator.  1, record 3, English, - United%20Nations%20Global%20Compact
