  • Corporate Social Responsibility, Sustainability Reporting and Forest Fires: Evidence from the 2018 Megafires»
    Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Faculty of Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Environment Department of Forestry and Natural Environment MSc in Natural Resources: Monitoring, Technology and Bio – Economy «Corporate Social Responsibility, Sustainability Reporting and Forest Fires: Evidence from the 2018 Megafires» Master Thesis by: Eleni Stathi Supervisor: Ioannis Gitas Thessaloniki, July 2021 Abstract This study explores the way that the top Greek and Californian corporations responded to the 2018 megafires, of Mati, Attica and Camp Fire, California. As megafires are becoming more often and their impacts more destructive, through the years, coordinated efforts are directed towards elimination of these tragic events and building of resilient communities. The private sector can play a vital role to achieving these goals, through philanthropic activities that are part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and usually expressed by the corporations’ sustainability reporting (SR). Based on CSR and natural disaster literature, and with the empirical data that were collected, the current research shows A) an important movement from both the Greek and Californian corporations towards the disaster relief efforts, B) the existence of different CSR patterns between the two regions and C) an extensive use of SR of the CSR performers. This is an empirical study among the first that comparatively examine CSR during two megafires in two different parts of the world and aims to add to the existing literature, as well as give a new perspective for future researchers, for corporations and public authorities. Key- words: California wildfires, Mati wildfire, resilience, natural disasters, corporate philanthropy, GRI 1 Περίληψη Η παρούσα εργασία ερευνά τον τρόπο με τον οποίο έδρασαν οι εταιρείες σε Ελλάδα και Καλιφόρνια κατά τις μεγαπυρκαγιές του 2018, σε Μάτι, Αττικής και στην Camp Fire, στην Καλιφόρνια.

This arch was con- structed, probably, in the second half of the 1st century after Christ, and its four piers were built into the Northeast Gate of the Fortress on the Hexamilion shortly after A.D. 400. The arch stood in a prominent position on a ridge overlooking the port of Schoinos, and any visitor who approachedIsthmia from the north or east, either by land or by sea, would have ' This report is a result of excavationsin 1967 and 1969 by the University of California, Los Angeles, on behalf of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens with the generous support of the Samuel H. Kress Foundation, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, Stuart E. M. Thorne, Esq., and the National Endowment for the Humanities. This study is the cumulative result of the work of many individuals over a number of years. Thanks are naturally due to the Greek ArchaeologicalService and to a succession of coop- erative ephors of the Argolid and Corinthia. We wish also to thank Professor Paul A. Clement, Director, Isthmia Excavations (UCLA), for his suggestion that we publish the arch at Isthmia and for his constant support and good advice. William B.

  • Piraeus and Thessaloniki Ports: Performance and Development
    IAME 2015 Conference Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Paper ID 115 Pinelopi Paspaliari, Anthony Beresford, Stephen Pettit Cardiff Business School, Cardiff University, UK Piraeus and Thessaloniki ports: performance and development Abstract The study first makes a comparison between two major Greek ports; Piraeus and Thessaloniki with regard to their functionality, performance, development and their national or international roles. Secondly, the study determines the factors that are the most influential on the performance and development of the two ports. The former constitutes the most important node in the route connecting the Far East with Europe via the Suez Canal which makes it significant both to the national economy and to the economies and trade of the Eastern Mediterranean region (Psaraftis, 2007). The latter serves a wider international contestable hinterland which consists of the FYROM, southern Bulgaria, southern Serbia and the Black Sea countries. Further, Thessaloniki is the only port in Greece which is directly connected with the national rail network, it is a node in the Pan-European Corridors IV and X (Vaggelas, 2012) and it is more closely integrated into the TEN-T than the port of Piraeus. Hence the research conducts a comparative study between the ports in terms of their performance and development paths. Keywords: Port performance, port development, Piraeus, Thessaloniki 1. Introduction In recent years, seaport-specific research has become a dominant theme in the area of maritime economics studies. It comprises various themes, such as port policy, port governance and reform, competition between ports, performance of ports, management and strategy, planning and Piraeus and Thessaloniki ports: performance and development Paper ID 115 development of ports, spatial analysis, etc., while new themes constantly emerge over time, reflecting the evolution of the port industry such as the changing role of seaports in supply chains and logistics.
