As informed yesterday, a 2-day online conference of the UN Global Compact 20th Anniversary Leaders Summit took place with the attendance of over 15,000 participants including heads of governments as well as representing the world's leading organisations.

As the only international organisation in Azerbaijan, which enjoys a General Consultative Status with UN ECOSOC as well as a member of the UN Global Compact family, the International Eurasia Press Fund (IEPF) is honoured to be among an elite group leading sustainable business leaders and changemakers converging from more than 190 countries.

This year's UN Global Compact Leaders Summit marks 20 years of uniting business for a better world. Taking place virtually on 15–16 June 2020, the Leaders Summit brings together thousands of leaders to decide how business can support countries and communities around the world to recover better, recover stronger, and recover together from three global crises – health, inequality, and climate.

20th-anniversary Leaders Summit virtually convenes leading voices from Business, Government, the United Nations, Civil Society and Academia for a 26-hour conversation about how it is possible to rebuild more inclusive economies and societies to set a new course for a socially just, low-carbon and climate resilient world, where no one is left behind.

ANTÓNIO GUTERRES, LISE KINGO, TEDROS ADHANOM GHEBREYESUS, ANGELA MERKEL, BAN KI-MOON, and many others are among the key speakers!
