Advocacy
We believe that our strong advocacy angle sets us apart from conventional consultancies. Enhanced by a powerful network of partnerships, our commitment to advocacy epitomises our marketing style and accounts for our strong brand integrity and presence.
Our advocacy work takes many forms and includes:
- Playing an instrumental role in bringing the Carbon Disclosure Project to South Africa in partnership with the National Business Initiative, and undertaking the CDP SA research each year;
- Serving pro bono on Working Groups of the South African Integrated Reporting Committee (IRC) and the International Integrated Reporting Committee (IIRC), where we are helping to shape the agenda of the global shift in corporate accounting practice;
- Chairing the multinational negotiation sessions associated with developing a global standard on social responsibility that seeks to promote sustainable development (ISO 26000);
- Undertaking commissioned policy research for leading global organisations, including UNEP, the UN Global Compact, GTZ and the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD);
- Teaching at various business schools and contributing previously to the development and delivery of executive seminars run by the Cambridge University Programme for Sustainability Leadership
We are proud to be contributing to these leading organisations and initiatives, each of which has an influential role in creating a sustainable society.
Please email Jonathon for further information on our advocacy and research activities.
