Accepting our environmental responsibility continues to be a challenge and opportunity for us as we seek ways to adapt our business processes and culture to addressing the environmental challenges we face today. Our environmental strategy has three pillars: tackling climate change, improving our overall environmental performance, and minimizing our use of natural resources.  more[...]  login_required

  • The microfinance revolution has only just begun

    Prof. Hanns Michael Hölz
    Deutsche Bank AG

    Microcredits have proven to be powerful instruments in the fight against poverty. However, they will reach their full impact only if they manage to limit their reliance on the charitable sector. “The genocide brought the destruction of my parents’ retail shop“, Nsengiyma Gilbert from Rwanda explains. “It ended in ruins and in the brutal killing of my father. After the war, I dropped out of school, crisscrossed Kigali in search for a job to no avail. Then the idea of selling milk to a nearby kindergarten school near my home came to me. However, the earnings from this business were not enough to buy me a refrigerator and enable me rent a bigger place to start a restaurant,” Gilbert says.  more[...]

  • The Accountability Web: Weaving Corporate Accountability with Interactive Technologies

    Bill Baue

    Using Web 2.0 tools for corporate accountability makes inherent sense, as they share a common thread: Both are rooted in interaction and thrive on engagement. We call this intersection The Accountability Web, the title of the report we wrote last year during a research fellowship for the CSR Initiative at the Harvard Kennedy School.  more[...]  login_required

    Dr. Reiner Hengstmann, Puma
    Stefan D. Seidel, Puma

    2009 was an eventful and challenging year – not only for PUMA but also for the world economy and the Sportlifestyle industry as a whole. The impacts of the financial crisis were felt globally and did not spare PUMA. At the same time, sincere criticism toward unsustainable, short-term financial business models and serious concerns about global warming called not only for a stronger emphasis on concepts of sustainable development within our societies but also for individual industries and single corporations.  more[...]  login_required
