All the Italian organizations participating in the UN Global Compact can apply on a voluntary basis to the Board of Directors of UN Global Compact Network Italy to become “Founder Members”, in order to gain also a role at the local network governance level. According to the Statute, the Board of Directors of the Network has the responsibility and the task of evaluating the applications received for the status of “Founder Member” of UNGCN Italy (approving or declining them for proven reasons of incompatibility).

Regarding the business organizations, the possible acquisition of the additional status of “Founder Member” of UNGCN Italy does not foresee any further financial obligations, beyond those associated with the international participation.

Regarding the non-business organizations, they will be required to financially support the local network if the organization acquires “Founder Member” status.
