A description of practical actions taken/ planned in future to implement the Global Compact principles in each of the four issue areas (human rights, labour, environment, anti-corruption).

Measurement of outcomes – COP submission includes our intended metrics to measure the progress of the actions outlined in the section above (i.e., the degree to which targets/performance indicators were met/ will meet in the future, or other qualitative or quantitative measurement of results).
