PHISO is now a registered participant of the United Nations Global Compact.

With the upcoming #PHISO2021 Free Virtual International Conference on Global Anthropocene, it is very fitting to announce to our dearest members that on February 16, 2021 we successfully registered as participant of the United Nations Global Compact. As a participant, PHISO commits to:

• Support the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact with respect to human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption;
• Advance these principles within our sphere of influence, and make a clear statement of this commitment to our stakeholders and the general public;
• Take part in the activities of the UN Global Compact; and
• Communicate every two years with our stakeholders on our engagement in the Global Compact and our efforts to support the ten principles, and post this Communication on Engagement (COE) on the UN Global Compact website.

As part of increasing our international visibility, PHISO is also a partner organization of the International Studies Association (ISA), a member of the World International Studies Committee (WISC), an associate member of the Association of Asian Social Science Research Councils (AASSREC), an institutional member of the International Political Science Association (IPSA), an affiliate member of the ISA Global South Caucus of International Studies (GSCIS), and the country partner of the College of William and Mary’s TRIP (Teaching, Research, and International Policy) Faculty Survey.
