Raising Awareness & Building Consensus

The Global Corporate Governance Forum facilitates networks of corporate governance leaders in developing and developed countries. As part of this initiative, the Forum supports public-private discussions to identify priorities and marshal support for corporate governance reform. This dialogue has led to a series of corporate governance papers. In addition, the Forum supports the World Bank-OECD Regional Corporate Governance Roundtables and other corporate governance conferences and forums; some of these include:

Corporate Governance and Cooperatives Peer Review Workshop, London 2007

Developing International Corporate Governance Guidelines and Standards

The Caribbean Corporate Governance Forum

Middle East & North Africa Corporate Governance Forum

Pan-African Consultative Forum on Corporate Governance

World Bank-OECD Regional Corporate Governance Roundtables

The Forum supports the country and regional Corporate Governance Roundtables that promote policy dialogue for reform implementation, taking the OECD Principles of Corporate Governance as a conceptual framework for discussion. Participants in each roundtable include senior figures from the public and private sector, civil society and international experts in the field (for more information, click here Experiences from the Regional Corporate Governance Roundtable).
