Dear LPW Network members,
Since June 2008 LPW is member of UN Global Compact. Following is information from GC Secretariat.
As you might know December 2009 is an important milestone in the global environmental agenda. World leaders will gather in Copenhagen to seal the deal on a new climate change agreement, which must help reducing emissions while assisting countries as they adapt to the inevitable effects of climate change. To sign this agreement which must be ambitious, fair and effective the world should think, talk and work in unison. Therefore, to galvanize the political will and public support for reaching a comprehensive global climate agreement in Copenhagen, the United Nations initiated a worldwide Climate Week (21-26 September) marked by synchronized activities in more than 100 locations around the world.
In Ukraine the Ukrainian Climate Week (18-26 September) is backed by the Global Compact network. Attached is the programme of the Ukrainian Climate Week in Ukrainian which helps you to develop internal communication in your organizations and encourage employees and their families to participate actively in this initiative. The English copy of the programme is available upon request.
We invite all the GC members to join the Week demonstrating active and responsible position towards the environment. Climate Week is not only an exercise in raising environmental awareness. It may also be an effective team-building tool which unites employees' energy around universal values.
We would be pleased to receive from you corporate photo and news on how your organization supported the Climate Week and will be happy to post them on Global Compact Network Ukraine website and the UN-backed global site http://www.sealthedeal2009.orп/.
