And what is it like? And, unfortunately, there are no correct direct answers. You, as the reader, are offered a number of business cases, which are demonstrating various practices of Corporate Social Responsibili- ty (CSR) in the environmentally-safe way of economic development. I hope that the author’s ideas will find support and would inspire responsible decisions in the future! Liudmyla Petrashko Conceptor and Coordinator of the project «European business-practices of corporate social responsibility: саse study» / [email protected] / 6 Introduction The rethinking of capitalism and its paradigm transforms mar- ket relations, the business environment and person in the context of seeking value orientation: from material well-being to trust and joy for the purpose of sustainable development. 15—20 years ago in the cor- porate sector of the economy, nobody would have believed that no- wadays, for most corporations, it would be common practice to track and report publicly on the effective use of water and energy, the amount of carbon dioxide emissions, etc. The most successful companies define their mission as a harmo- nious balance between the creation of social and emotional values and the profit for their investors. They are trying to do good and strive to bring joy, love, benevolence and sincerity to people. The proof of this thesis is the results of a six-year study by profes- sors at the Stanford University School of Business (USA) D.Collins and D.Porras «Constructed Forever: The Success of Companies with Vision.» It contains the investigation of the laws of the centuries-old historical development of well-known and successful companies with vision, which happen to be the companies of widely recognized indus- try leaders who have long and fundamental history of their impact on the environment. The list of survey respondents contains the following companies: Boeing, Walmart, 3M, Hewlett-Packard, Sony. The total number of companies surveyed is 18 that meet the following criteria: industry leadership, wide recognition by the business community, fundamental contribution to the world’s economic development, managed by sev- eral generations of executives, survived several life cycles of goods and services, established before 1950. System analysis of companies that have vision and their compari- son with competitors allowed to highlight the underlying causes of long-term leadership of such companies. Namely, the ability to estab- lish high standards of values and effectiveness, the ability to initiate the continual internal changes that inspire. Vision-based companies share eternal values, long-term and never-ending goals, business strat- egies and developing day-to-day responsible practices. According to researches, investing $ 1 in a company with vision in 1926 would have allowed to gain $ 6,356 in 1990, which is 6 times 7 higher than the similar transaction in a company from the comparison list ($ 955). However, the key efficiency multipliers for comparable companies are higher

  • Too Much to Handle Radioactive Waste Management in the Post Nuclear Accident Country Ukraine
    Too much to handle Radioactive waste management in the post nuclear accident country Ukraine Kyiv, 2017 Too much to handle Radioactive waste management in the post nuclear accident country Ukraine Olexi Pasyuk Centre of Environmental Initiatives ‘Ecoaction’ www.ecoaction.org.ua [email protected] This paper is a contribution to the publication: Achim Brunnengräber, Maria Rosaria Di Nucci, Ana María Isidoro Losada, Lutz Mez, Miranda Schreurs (Eds.). Nuclear Waste Governance: An International Comparison. Vol. II, to ap- pear in Springer VS, c. 300 pp We gratefully acknowledge language editing effort by Jess Wallach. Abstract In 1986, Ukraine experienced a major nuclear accident at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant (NPP); over three decades later, this event continues to define Ukraine’s waste management situation. Today, radioactive waste at the Chornobyl NPP site and surrounding exclusion zone constitutes over 98% of total solid radioactive waste. Spent nuclear fuel is excluded from this figure as it has special legal status and is not considered to be radioactive waste. Following Ukraine’s independence from the Soviet Union, its institutional system to manage nuclear waste problems has continually changed and has not reached the state of clear responsibilities and distribution of roles between various institutions. However, the need for this clarity is recognized by experts and proposals have been made to centralise the management system. EU and IAEA funding enables research on the waste management system most suitable for Ukraine, including deep geological disposal (DGD), regulatory system improvements and physical infrastructure. Adaptation of the Ukrainian standards and practices to the European standards will be ac- celerated in view of the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement.

  • ENEMO International Election Observation Mission Local Elections Ukraine 2020
    ENEMO International Election Observation Mission Local Elections Ukraine 2020 STATEMENT OF PRELIMINARY FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS FOR MAYORAL RUN- OFF ELECTIONS 27 October - 23 November 24 November The voting process on 15 and 22 November was mostly well administered despite COVID-19 and numerous challenges faced by the election administration which affected the efficiency of the preparations. Different dates for scheduling second rounds due to delays in announcing first round results hindered the visibility of these elections, while cases of abuse of incumbency and negative campaigning among candidates continued to mar the campaign. The European Network of Election Monitoring Organizations (ENEMO) officially deployed an International Election Observation Mission (IEOM) to Ukraine on 7 October 2020 to observe the 2020 Local Elections. ENEMO has accredited a total of nine Core Team experts, three of which are based in Kyiv and six of which are working from abroad, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related risks. The Mission is headed by Dr. Zlatko Vujovic. ENEMO has additionally engaged 48 virtual long-term observers (LTOs) in 24 teams to remotely conduct virtual observation of all regions in the country. Due to prevailing problems with COVID-19, the mission did not deploy short-term observers (STOs) and did not comprehensively observe the process at polling stations on Election Day. Following the first round held on 25 October, ENEMO continued to observe crucial aspects of the electoral process ahead of the run-off polls. Core Team members and ENEMO LTOs conducted online meetings with election management bodies, political parties and candidates, state officials, media representatives and domestic civil society organizations, in addition to remotely observing campaign activities.

After all, the oblast consists of 9 single-member districts that translate in 9 seats at the national parliament. When compared with 17 seats allocated to Dnipropetrovsk oblast, 13 – to Kharkiv, 12 to Donetsk, or Lviv oblast, and 11 to Odessa oblast, this does not look impressive. The power struggle in Kyiv oblast might seem of limited strategic importance. Such a conclusion is, however, erroneous as Kyiv oblast has several distinctive features, which makes it central in power competition and power distribution after each election. Firstly, the oblast is adjacent to the ultimate powerhouse of national politics, the city of Kyiv. The nine above-mentioned electoral districts comprise regional town areas which encircle the capital, set its administrative boundaries, contain its growth, limit the city’s capabilities to manage logistics and to provide infrastructural services. In fact, the lack of capacities forced the mayor of Kyiv to initiate the program to create a “Kyiv metropolitan area” which should bring closer housing, transportation, and administration across the city of Kyiv and the oblast emulating the Metropolis of Greater Paris.
