The authors of the report, David Annandale (Murdoch University), Al Fry (World Business Council for Sustainable Development), and William Halal (George Washington University), plus ADB staff, will deliver their initial findings and seek feedback from a wide range of stakeholders. The content of the report will cover external pressures that are driving Asian firms towards greater attention to environmental issues, the implications of moving of at least towards compliance with government regulations and standards, the prospects of new business opportunities in the emerging environmental goods and services market, the probability of new technologies making old environmental concerns obsolete, and the role of governments and other institutions in creating an enabling environment for corporations to take up their responsibilities for improved environmental performance. The inputs from the participants will be incorporated in the final report, which will be presented to the Ministerial Conference on Environment and Development in Korea in March 2005. | ||

18 Public-Private Partnerships in Developing Countries Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre - Room 304 This workshop is based on various research projects investigating recent and innovative ways that business partnerships have evolved and the contribution of these partnerships to sustainable development. In accordance with the location of this year’s GIN conference it does so by particularly focusing on studies from the Asian continent. The papers look at four key areas which provide insight into the development, and the impacts, of partnerships in Asia. First, a macro analysis of CSR and partnerships is undertaken to provide contextualisation and contrast between seven Asian countries. The discussion is focussed on the question of whether an “Asian?model of CSR exists, and differences in issues and use of partnerships are analysed. The findings seem to suggest that partnerships are the main vehicle for progressing “beyond philanthropy?towards sustainable development. The workshop then moves towards an “issue?based analysis of partnership development with the focus narrowing to the management of HIV/AIDS. Again, this issue based research explores the implications of partnerships in the development of business practice beyond philanthropy. This research, based among others on data from the Philippines, shows that particularly in social and economic sustainability, partnerships are a tool to live up to new challenges particularly for MNCs. The next paper discusses the design and mechanics of partnerships, in particular the dynamics and the variety of organization evident in partnership formation. This is explored in more detail by a contribution from India, where quite a long tradition in various tri-partite partnership exists. Finally, the workshop attempts to conceptualize ways of assessing the benefit of partnerships with the application of social capital theory to the area of corporate volunteering, which is emerging as a very popular form of partnership in developing countries. | ||

19 BS8555 Workshop Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre - Room 306 BS8555 are guidelines on a staged approach to developing and implementing an ISO 14001 compliant EMS.

The purpose of this workshop is to provide participants with an overview of BS8555 and opportunities to discuss and explore the subject and share relevant experience. The workshop will include presentation, exercise and structured discussion sessions where appropriate. | ||

This is set to be a lively and engaging debate – and a debate it will be – there is no hard sell here. What should a tobacco company do in Asia, for example, where over 50% of men smoke in some regions? What can any company do that has a product that damages its consumers? Should we shun tobacco companies or cooperate with them? Philip Morris wants to engage with their stakeholders. But do you want to engage with them? | ||

36 Sustainable Home Services: Benchmarking sustainable household services for the city of tomorrow Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre - Room 308 The purpose of this workshop is to discuss the findings of an EU-funded 2-year project studying sustainability of services offered to households in six countries: Austria, Finland, Germany, Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. The themes for which we would like to get the participants input are: (1) a newly developed method for assessing environmental, social & economic sustainability of homeservices and its application for real-life services; (2) sustainable household service provision focusing on the role housing organizations and external service providers, and the cooperations between them in different European settings; (3) survey of 300 residents regarding service use and willingness to use services enhancing sustainability; and (4) obstacles and strategies for promoting sustainable household services in compensating product-related consumption. Format of the workshop: we will first present some main findings of the project. Thereafter we would like to engage the participants by showing them a DVD-film about ecologically, socially and/or economically sustainable homeservice examples in six European countries. The service examples of the film are provided directly to the residents at home or the premises, and they involve different co-operative arrangements between providers. Finally, in toward the end of the workshop we intend to run an interactive exercise with the participants, focusing on feasible business models for sustainable household services. Expected participants: the workshop is suited for both researchers and practitioners interested in the topic, because it will deal with findings that have both scientific and practical value. | ||

40 From Visualization to Realization Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre - Room 311-312 A recurrent theme in the debates about sustainability is the need to widely and effectively cultivate systemic thinking. Another is the elusiveness of the will and commitment to lead sustainable change. Through a series of eleven real-resource, total immersion simulation games carried out in the US and Sweden since 1996, called "reality labs", I have sought to design a training method that stimulates systemic thinking in a vivid, memorable, and personally transforming way. "Reality labs" unfold over several days in an outdoor setting. Teams use real resources, and encounter a variety of dilemmas in which economic, ethical, and environmental goals collide. Contingencies like energy crises and territorial disputes introduce drama and intensify teams?dilemmas. Management, organization, performance measurement, social accountability, and strategy are some of the skill areas that participants focus on while apprehending sustainability, nature, and their own basic needs on other levels. To date, nearly 500 people from dozens of countries have taken part in the evolving prototype "reality labs" ?most recently at the School for International Training (SIT) in Vermont. Reactions have been quite positive, and considerable enthusiasm generated each time, but research into their short- and long-term learning effects has been almost non-existent. This workshop will present and explore a proposal for a program in partnership with the Greening of Industry Network and SIT for developing "reality labs" further and evaluating their effectiveness. We will look at how experiential and adventure-based programs have been evaluated in the past, and at the criteria that should be used for judging the effects of "realty labs", that is, at the outlines of a roadmap of conceptual and attitudinal development that movement in a sustainable direction requires. The workshop will include active sampling of some of the situations faced by teams in a "reality lab" exercise. | ||

43 Theorizing Public-Private Partnerships Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre - Room 304 Since the 1992 Rio Summit, the business community and public organizations are recognizing the potential benefits of public-private partnerships for furthering the Millennium Development Goals while having a positive impact on business. Partnerships have become more common as corporations react to pressure from corporate stakeholders on the responsible nature of their business practices. The corporate awakening towards a broader role of business in society has led many to question the factors that motivate corporations to pursue partnerships. The authors will examine the underlying drivers of corporate organizational behaviour, and will discuss the challenges of understanding why corporations embrace such partnerships. | ||

48 Partnerships in Sustainability Education for the Construction Industry 1 Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre - Room 308 Aim: To blend the expertise of construction industry practitioners with the experience of environmental management educators to develop viable programs for contractor education in environmentally sustainable construction practices. Workshop Issues and Summary: The Building and Construction Authority (BCA) in Singapore is driving the construction industry towards more sustainable practices. The top two grades of contractors in BCA’s Contractors’ Registry were required to obtain certification in both environmental and OHS management systems by July 2004. There is some concern that awareness of sustainability issues and practices at the on-ground level needs to be assured by change of mind-set at management level and indeed all levels of personnel. This can only be achieved through relevant education and appropriate training. The theme of partnerships for sustainability education will be developed in this workshop through the presentation of six short papers on environmental management in the construction industry, each accompanied by a series of key questions for audience participation. The session will be facilitated and reported to generate curriculum and content for a study program aiming to change mindset and contribute to the education and training of construction contractors and employees in innovative and sustainable building practices. | ||
