Glimpse a better future

Take a peek at our Reporting Best Practices

Members of Global Child Forum’s Impact Network can access a library of more than 80 examples demonstrating how influential companies report clearly on children’s rights, as measured by our annual global benchmark. For company’s seeking guidance on how to increase their score, this is a mine of key information.

How are your peers successfully reporting on children’s rights?

Further down this page are three Reporting Best Practices unlocked examples for non-members to access:

  • One: Telefónica | Grievance Mechanisms | 1.2.2
  • Two: Foxconn | Family Actions | 2.3.3
  • Three: Sainsbury’s | Actions on Responsible Marketing or Product Responsibility | 3.3.3

These examples are specific to certain sectors and industries, but can be applied within multiple sectors and industries.
