Validated ID is proud to announce its accession to the United Nations Global Compact, a voluntary leadership platform that promotes the development, implementation, and dissemination of responsible business practices. In this blog post, we will explore the reasons behind this addition and how Validated ID will contribute to a more stable and inclusive global market.
The United Nations Global Compact
The United Nations Global Compact is an initiative that invites companies around the world to align their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in key areas such as human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption. These principles are aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which seek to address global challenges and promote a sustainable future for all.
Validated ID membership reasons
Validated ID has decided to join the United Nations Global Compact because it shares the conviction that business practices rooted in universal principles are fundamental to building a more stable and inclusive global market. The company recognizes the importance of promoting human rights, ensuring fair working conditions, protecting the environment and combating corruption. By joining the Global Compact, Validated ID commits to take concrete actions to support these principles and contribute to the SDGs.
Prior Commitment to Sustainability and Business Ethics
Since its inception, Validated ID has demonstrated a strong commitment to sustainability and business ethics. The company continues to seek to integrate responsible practices into its operations and business decisions, to minimize its environmental impact and contribute to the sustainable development of society. Validated ID services are digitizing solutions focused on minimizing the use of paper, which respect the environment and help in the fight against deforestation, allowing companies to reduce their environmental impact.
Initiatives carried out by Validated ID regarding sustainability and business ethics include:

- Social responsibility: The company actively participates in corporate social responsibility initiatives, collaborating with charities and community projects to contribute to the well-being of the people and communities where it operates. Since 2019, we have collaborated with the Sustainable Forests organization, planting more than 300 trees on behalf of our partners to recover landscapes and restore native forests.
- Transparency and ethics: Validated ID is committed to acting with integrity and transparency in all its business relationships, respecting the highest ethical standards and complying with all applicable laws and regulations regarding privacy and data protection.
