 # GRI Raising Human Rights and Sustainability Issues in Africa

 


 

 Nov 10, 2017 11:00 AM ET

  Campaign:  [GRI 20th Anniversary](/news/campaign/gri-20th-anniversary) With support from the UK government, GRI is advancing the state of reporting to promote responsible business practices across different countries in Africa. Raising awareness and helping organizations report on social, economic and environmental issues is a vital component of this program. UK's Department for International Development also backs GRI’s regular work on updating and evolving its standards to reflect new emerging topics and best practices on sustainability reporting.

**[Click here](https://www.globalreporting.org/resourcelibrary/Working%20with%20Governments%20UK.pdf)** to see the highlights so far and future plans of the project.

*[Working directly with governments](https://www.globalreporting.org/information/about-gri/strategic-partnerships/Pages/strategic-partnerships.aspx) around the world, GRI is contributing to advancing sustainable trade, investment and development in emerging countries, which will help lift millions of people out of poverty and reduce social and economic inequality.*
