Guide for General Counsel on Corporate Sustainability

This guide was created as a response to a growing desire to engage lawyers more fully as sustainability champions. Developed as a joint effort between the United Nations Global Compact, Linklaters LLP, and UC Berkeley School of Law, it will help your legal professionals to better understand and integrate the core elements of sustainability, including business integrity; ESG and fiduciary duties; human rights and supply chain risk management; the role of grievance mechanisms; and ways in which businesses can respond to crisis situations.
