A/HRC/26/20 Organization should look to external entities for examples of good practice in that regard. 89. The Global Compact provides a key platform for engaging with the private sector and sharing of knowledge and best practices among business enterprises on the implementation of the Guiding Principles. The Global Compact should engage systematically through its local networks to identify implementation challenges, potential tools and good practices, and to disseminate learning and facilitate sharing of experiences. 90. UNCITRAL is well placed to review the extent to which the Guiding Principles are incorporated into national legislation and regulations governing business conduct. UNCITRAL is encouraged to collaborate in that regard with the Working Group on the issue of human rights and transnational corporations and other business enterprises. Member States 91. Member States, in compliance with their responsibility to ensure policy coherence as set out in the Guiding Principles, should ensure that they consistently engage with the United Nations in such a way as to encourage the integration of the Guiding Principles within the United Nations system, and do not constrain it. Issue of a global fund to support capacity-building of all actors to implement the Guiding Principles 92. The Secretary-General notes that stakeholders across categories express support for a new global fund to enhance the capacity of stakeholders to implement the Guiding Principles. However, there is still a need to consult further with stakeholders to explore differing views of the desirable mandate, governance structure and sources of funding for a fund in that area. 93. It is recommended that OHCHR leads a multi-stakeholder consultation process to develop concrete proposals for a new fund in the area, and to present specific models for consultation with all stakeholders at the third annual Forum on Business and Human Rights in December 2014. The consultations should involve all relevant stakeholder groups, including representatives of governments, the private sector, civil society and grass roots organizations and the Working Group on the issue of transnational corporations and other business enterprises, and other relevant experts from within and outside the United Nations system. 94. Following those consultations, OHCHR should organize an expert-level meeting in early 2015 to develop a concrete recommendation for the structure and mandate of a fund, to be proposed to the Council in June 2015 for its consideration. 18
