Worldaware
believes
that good corporate citizenship and social responsibility make sound
business sense. Since 1989 the Worldaware Business Awards Scheme
has recognised over 50 companies, institutions and non-governmental
organisations which have contributed to the development of poorer
countries through innovative and sustainable commercial activity.
How
the scheme works
The
aim of the Awards Scheme is to recognize and promote the contribution
which commercial activity can make to the sustainable growth (economic,
sustainable, environmental) of developing countries throughout the
world.
Once
entries have been received they will be considered by a panel of
Assessors for each category. The Assessors will ask further questions
of the entrants and take up references. Each Assessors’ panel prepares
a short-list of entries for the Judges who
make the final decision on winners.
The
Award trophies will be presented in January 2002 at a ceremony in
London. The Awards attract significant media coverage, and winners
will be expected to assist Worldaware in providing interviews/copy
for journalists.
Winners
will be entitled to use an official logo in their publicity material
and all winning and short-listed entries are fully described in
the prestigious Worldaware Awards Brochure, which is made widely
available to media, business and diplomatic communities, and posted
on the Worldaware website.
