Championing Global Health: Walgreens Boots Alliance New Championing Global Health: Walgreens Boots Alliance New Global Sustainability Report Details Support for People Living with Cancer and Eorts to Improve Child and Maternal Health 2/11/2020 Company Continues Progress on Reducing Carbon Footprint LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Walgreens Boots Alliance (Nasdaq: WBA) today announced the publication of its 2019 Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report, which details the company’s global sustainability initiatives, including eorts to improve access to quality healthcare, deliver support programs for people living with cancer and reduce its carbon footprint. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20200211005125/en/ Walgreens stores sponsored more than 1,800 health fairs in local communities where they “Our purpose at WBA is to help provided u clinics, diabetes screening and information on opioid safety and drug takeback people live healthier and happier during scal year ending August 31, 2019. (Photo: Business Wire) lives,” said Ornella Barra, WBA’s co-chief operating ocer and the chairman of the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility Committee. “Everyone deserves the opportunity to fulll his or her potential, regardless of where one lives. That’s why we mobilize our incredible employees and invest resources in issues that impact our patients, customers and society. We believe in our ability to eect positive change in communities around the world.” WBA is a leading global pharmacy retailer and wholesaler, present in 25 countries, including equity method investments. The company includes Boots UK, Boots Ireland, Alliance Healthcare and Walgreens and reaches millions of customers and patients through its retail pharmacy businesses every day. Highlights from this year’s report include: Expansion of In-Store Support for People Living with Cancer For the past 20 years, Walgreens Boots Alliance and its businesses has sought to create innovative and meaningful support for cancer patients and their loved ones. For more than 10 years, Boots UK and Macmillan Cancer Support, one of the largest British charities, have worked together to train beauty consultants and pharmacists to deliver in-store advice to patients and customers on managing physical and emotional side eects of cancer and cancer treatments. Following the UK in-store model, in March 2019, Walgreens launched Feel More Like You™ which also positions trained beauty consultants and pharmacists to advise and support people with cancer at more than 3,000 U.S. locations. “The experience of cancer can be incredibly lonely,” said Jonathan, a cancer survivor. “Being able to talk with a Boots pharmacist who understood what I was going through and could give me advice on how to manage my physical and emotional side eects helped me feel less lonely and gave me the condence to tackle my diagnosis head on.” Life-Changing Vitamins to More Than 200 Million Women and Children In addition to addressing cancer, WBA has also dedicated eorts to improving healthcare in communities around the world. Six years ago, Walgreens and nonprot Vitamin Angels teamed up to improve maternal and child health around the world. To date, the partners have provided vitamins to more than 200 million women and children around the world. The charitable partnership works in two ways: For every customer purchase of vitamins from select suppliers, Walgreens donates one percent of sales to Vitamin Angels’ outreach eorts across the U.S. and globally. Additionally, for the past two years, Walgreens ‘Quarter Drive’ customer donation campaign in January has raised more than $3 million for the Vitamin Angels’ mission. “You cannot underestimate the impact of Walgreens partnership with Vitamin Angels,” said Dr. Nikhil Harikrishnan, MPH, Vitamin Angels program manager in Asia. “I have seen rst-hand what a small intervention like a prenatal vitamin or vitamin A can do. We are literally changing lives, and that’s why the 200 million women and children impacted by our partnership is so incredible.” Waste Reduction and First-of-its-Kind Sustainable Shopping Experience The new CSR report also details eorts across WBA businesses to reduce energy consumption, cut the amount of waste that goes to landll and empower employees and customers to adopt environmentally friendly actions. In July 2019, Boots UK launched its agship Covent Garden store, a rst-of-its-kind retail environment. The store features a water station where customers can rell their reusable water bottles and a relling station for products such as shampoo. All Boots UK stores are also eliminating single-use plastic bags in favor of unbleached paper bags, a continuation of Boots journey to reduce plastic use across its business. “In building the Covent Garden store, we wanted to design the Boots retail experience of the future, one built with sustainability front of mind,” said Sebastian James, managing director of Boots UK and Republic of Ireland. “As a global business, we view sustainability holistically, from our supply chain to the in-store experience we deliver for customers. It’s all connected to our desire to operate as a responsible and best-in-class company.” The WBA 2019 CSR Report was prepared in accordance with the GRI Standards: Core option, which are the world’s most widely used set of sustainability reporting standards.

  • Carissimi Tutti
    Email di Annuncio – Eccezionalmente la SCUOLA approda al Forum Virtuale Women4Women - Mercoledì 12 maggio h.17:00 News del 6 Maggio 2021 Carissimi tutti, con una certa emozione e profondo senso di gratitudine voglio condividere con voi l’invito a partecipare al Forum Virtuale Women4Women - mercoledì 12 maggio h.17.00, augurandomi che siate in tanti ad aderirvi. Grazie al dott. Alfredo Ambrosetti ho avuto modo di conoscere la dott.ssa Ornella Barra, entrambi persone di grande umiltà, veri giganti al servizio della Nazione. La dott.ssa Ornella Barra, genovese di nascita, laurea in Farmacia, è oggi Chief Operating Officer, International di Walgreens Boots Alliance, a capo, col compagno di vita e di lavoro Stefano Pessina, di una realtà presente dal Nord al Sudamerica, dall’Europa alla Cina. Un gruppo che ha il suo quartier generale a Chicago, gli uffici a Londra; lo stile di Ornella è, comunque, rimasto, virtualmente, genovese. Una delle donne più influenti al mondo, come riviste di settore l'hanno definita, che ha mantenuto un’estrema riservatezza nei modi e nello stile di vita. Vale la pena citare le sue parole: «Sono cresciuta in una famiglia di imprenditori. Mio padre e mia madre hanno sempre avuto una dedizione molto forte per il lavoro e per la famiglia. Grazie al loro esempio, ho sempre saputo che nella vita bisogna impegnarsi e spesso anche sacrificarsi. Ma non è solo senso del dovere quello che mi è stato trasmesso. Certo, è un elemento importante per la formazione di un giovane, donna o uomo che sia… Ma quello che conta davvero, e che nella mia educazione ho avuto la fortuna di ricevere, è lo spirito di iniziativa.

  • Introduction Chapter 1
    Notes Introduction 1 This followed on from the Financial Services Authority discussion paper November 2006, which highlighted the risks of growing debt levels (FSA 2006). See conclusion. 2 It cannot for example override common and statute law regarding fraud and does not exempt the fund from investment law, competition law etc. Chapter 1 1 The term tendency is used here within the broad ‘realist’ tradition of social theory. Any given identifiable social entity has causal powers based on its constitution and relations. The operation of those causal powers creates further potentials that may be realised, given circumstances that are conducive, including the inter- action with other social entities. What exactly a social entity is raises the further issue of agency and structure and various problems of structural determinism dichotomised with methodological individualism. The minutiae of social theory debate on these issues are not strictly relevant here, however. See Harre and Madden (1975), Sayer (1982), Pinkstone (2007). 2 The very first, however, appeared in the early 1960s. I am indebted to Fenn, Liang and Prowse’s (1995) extensive study for the Federal Reserve as a main initial source for the early part of this section. The studies bibliography was also particularly useful in tracking down relevant material by various scholars in organisation and finance (Jensen, Kaplan etc.) who took an early interest in the phenomenon. An extended version of the Fenn et al. original study is available in Financial Markets, Institutions and Instruments 6 (4) 1997: 1–106. Gompers and Lerner (2000: 285; 1998: 151–2) also note the creation of the firm American Research and Develop- ment (ARD) in 1946 (See also Cohen 2007: 15).
