Eni x UN Global Compact

Eni's website published:

Eni has today been confirmed as a Global Compact LEAD participant for its ongoing commitment to the United Nations Global Compact and its Ten Principles for responsible business.

Eni was identified as being among the most highly-engaged participants of the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative.

Sanda Ojiambo, CEO and Executive Director of the UN Global Compact, said, “LEAD companies represent the highest level of engagement with the UN Global Compact. More than ever before, the world needs businesses of all sizes — like the ones announced as LEAD today — that continuously work to improve their sustainability performance and take action to build a better world”.

Claudio Descalzi, CEO of Eni, said “This recognition is an important testimony of our commitment to integrate sustainability into every aspect of our activities, to transform our industry respecting the dignity of every human being and to be open to new frontiers including that of sustainable finance in support of the SDGs. Pursuing this vision, we have strengthened our partnerships with international development cooperation agencies and organizations”.

Now, the duly proven “attacks” that Eni unfairly promoted against my honor and reputation (see Doc. 01 and Doc. 02) in 2010 (judicial process) and 2017 (ENI’s AGM), are condemned by the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights” (Article 12).

The UN Global Compact has two principles on Human Rights: 

Principle 1:
Businesses should support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights;

Principle 2:
Make sure that they are not complicit in human rights abuses.

So, why does Eni, in my case, doesn’t fulfill this “international commitment”?
