Awards are made in respect of the personal achievements of individuals nominated by a Licensed Constituent Body (LB) of The Society. With the support of Council, The Panel will operate in a confidential manner and no correspondence will be entered into, by the panel members in respect of any one determination. The Fellows’ Panel Terms of Reference The Panel oversees nominations for Honorary Fellowship of The Society (HonFSE). It receives nominations from Council Members; supported by two additional Council Members from different LB’s and makes a favourable determination if three quarters of The Panel are in favour. Membership of the Panel The Panel will consist of six members of the Council, including a Chairman, elected annually after the AGM of The Society, for a minimum period of one year but at the discretion of Council for a maximum of three years. The Panel may co-opt other members as and when the Panel deems necessary. Co-opted members need not be Members of The Council of The Society. They will be invited for a specific and time limited projects or purpose and will not have a vote. Meeting Frequency The Panel will typically meet twice a year, but may conduct its business electronically. Key Eligibility Criteria The nominating Licensed Constituent Body (LB) needs to satisfy itself, by consideration of evidence, that any nominated individual fulfils one or more of the criteria set out below. 1. Any person of distinction with a concern for the environment. 2. Any person who has rendered outstanding service to sustainability. 3. Any person who has rendered outstanding service to The Society. The individual may or may not already be a Chartered Environmentalist (CEnv) Page 3 of 6 Following a favourable determination by The Panel, The Society will confer the Award of an Honorary Fellowship (HonFSE). The award of an Honorary Fellowship does not confer the award of Chartered Environmentalist. The Selection of Nominees: 1. Potential HonFSE’s may be nominated at any time. However, in the first week of January The SocEnv Chief Executive (CEO) will invite up to a maximum of three nominations from each LB, made through its Council Members. The nominations will be made on a standard prescribed form, which may be available electronically and sent to the SocEnv CEO. The CEO will maintain a register of all such nominations. 2. Each nomination shall be supported by a Member of The Council and shall be seconded by at least two other Members of Council of The Society, from different LB’s. The nomination shall be accompanied by a supporting statement in the form of a draft citation which should be between 300 and 600 words long. 3. Nominations not supported by The Panel will not be notified to Council, and will remain confidential. Nominating LB’s may appeal to The Panel for a re-consideration, providing further justification for the nomination. Should The Panel reject the nomination a second time, there is no further appeal. The nominating LB can submit again at a future time. 4. Those awarded a HonFSE shall be entitled to style themselves HonFSE. They will receive a certificate and citation from The Society. 5. Unless Council determines otherwise, the number of HonFSE awards in any one year is not restricted and there is no limit to the total number of HonFSE’s that can be listed by The Society. 6. Presentations of the HonFSE award shall normally be made at a SocEnv hosted event which is normally the SocEnv summer reception following the AGM, but the Chair of The Society may agree to alternative times and events. 7. The process shall be reviewed every three years to enable any appropriate revisions to be made. 8. The nomination, assessment and determination of nominations may be conducted by electronic means with appropriate protocols to retain confidentiality. End of PD3 Edition 5 revision: 24th Nov 2014 Page 4 of 6 Sample Citation for Sara Lamb Parkin for the award of Honorary Fellow of the Society for the Environment in recognition of services to the Society and the environment whereas Sara Parkin joined the medical profession in 1967, in which she served until 1981. She qualified as a Registered General Nurse in 1970 at the Royal Infirmary in Edinburgh. Her career soon diversified in scope and responsibility to include such matters as family planning and relationship counselling. Her care for people also led to a concern for the environment. From as early as 1967, she developed a parallel career as an independent campaigner, writer and broadcaster on environmental and sustainable development issues. Sara is well known for her role in green politics and was a leading member of the Green Party from 1983 to 1992. As International Liaison Secretary, Sara worked with similar green organisations worldwide and as Chair, Sara led the Green Party Executive. She has been a candidate in national and local elections, and played a leading role in the in the Party’s success in the 1989 elections which took green politics centre stage in the UK for the first time. Sara also helped to found the ‘Forum for the Future’ with Jonathon Porritt and Paul Ekins in 1996. The mission of the Forum is to accelerate change towards a sustainable society. Sara was the founding Programme Director – a role she continues to fill to this day and she has leading role in education and learning programmes including: design of the Leadership for Sustainable Development Masters; the Higher Education Partnership for Sustainability; and, the Engineers for the 21st Century initiative. Sara has published widely and has been honoured by many organisations for her contribution to sustainable management, including the award of OBE in 2001. She currently serves on the Boards of: the Environment Agency; the Natural Environment Research Council; and, the Leadership Foundation for Higher Education. Sara also has a number of voluntary appointments. As the Society for the Environment developed its aims and aspirations, it was fortunate to secure contributions from Sara to its thinking. Through her good offices, the Society was able to demonstrate the commitment of the sustainability movement to the aspirations and underlying principles of the Society. This was a valuable contribution to the large body of evidence submitted to the Privy Council when the Society was seeking a Royal Charter. Sara continues to speak in support of the Society and its Constituent Bodies. By the award of HonFSE, the Society for the Environment recognises the contribution made by Sara Parkin to the development of the Society; her concurrent contribution to a sustainable environment and, her contributions to the governance of sustainable management. The Society extends its thanks and congratulations to Sara Parkin HonFSE. Page 5 of 6 .

This was the greeting from Juan Behrend, Co- Sec-retary General of the Green Group in the European Parliament, when I arrived at the Group’s first meeting after the 1999 European election. It was the first in the UK to be held by a method of propor- tional representation. I knew Juan, and many others at that meeting to set up the Group for the 1999–2004 term, through my years as a UK Green Party of England and Wales representative to the Euro- pean Green Coordination (forerunner of the European Green Party) and as my party’s ‘guest’ MEP in the 1989 Green Alternative Euro- pean Link (GRAEL) group, which was the first coordinated group of its kind led by the Greens. For two-and-a-half years, I had been a member of the Group’s executive body (the Bureau), had attended and voted at meetings of the Group, and had represented it at times, such as supporting the then Czechoslovakian Greens (Strana Zélèny) in the first election after the collapse of the Soviet Union. How had this come about? It was the result of the 1989 European election, when, under the previous disproportional electoral system (first-past-the-post), the UK Greens gained an average of 14.5% of the vote but no MEPs.1 Under a proportional system, we would have 84 GREENS FOR A BETTER EUROPE been the largest national green delegation.

    GREENS A BETTER FOR EUROPE “If we don’t change we will perish. Only the Greens truly recognise this. Strong Green Party voices at every level of government are vital.” – Sir Mark Rylance – While Greens in the UK have always suffered from a grossly unfair electoral system, in the European Union they have been able to flourish as part of a small but effective group of European Greens since their first election in 1999. GREENS Greens have had a significant influence on the policies impacting more than 500 million EU citizens, underlining environmental standards and challenging economic and social orthodoxy. While Greens have often been marginalised by the political and media FOR elites in Britain, across Europe, Greens have been seen as ‘the voice of reason’ and the ‘adults in the room’. A With Brexit threatening our ongoing influence on European policy-making, former and current UK Green MEPs Caroline Lucas, Jean Lambert, Keith Taylor and Molly Scott Cato reflect on their time in Brussels and chart a course for the party’s new relationship with the EU-wide Green movement.

    SUSTAINABILITY AND DEMOCRACY Are political parties getting in the way of the sort of collaborative democracy we need to tackle sustainability? If so, what can we do about it? An essay by SARA PARKIN 25th February 2008 SARA PARKIN Sara Parkin is a Founder Director of Forum for the Future. She serves also on the boards of the Natural Environment Research Council, and the Leadership Foundation for Higher Education, and, until 2006, The Environment Agency of England and Wales. In various roles, she has campaigned for the environment and sustainable development for 40 years, including, during the 1970s and 1980s, playing leading roles in the UK Green Party and international green politics. She was awarded an OBE in 2001 for services to education and sustainable development. At the moment she is writing a book on sustainability and leadership. She writes in a private capacity.

What is it and why does it matter for sustainability? This essay argues that it matters a lot, yet despite more angst demokratie in the press and chatterati about democracy since Charter 88 was founded, there is little fundamental analysis about why democracy is struggling. Most reviews, like the Power Report, 1 and the government’s recent Green Paper The Governance of Britain, 2 are about detailed tinkering with the system, and don’t think hard about what it is we want a democratic system to do for us in the 21st century.

Institutions and their processes will not change all that quickly. We need ‘positive deviants’ who can implement sustainability solutions. Despite the difficulties. An economy low in carbon and high in life satisfaction will require thousands, if not millions of exceptional leaders. In The Positive Deviant: Sustainability Leadership in a Perverse World, published this month by Earthscan, author Sara Parkin author Sara Parkin aims to inspire a generation of ‘positive deviants’ – sustainability-literate leaders who do the right thing for sustainability in a world that remains perversely intent on the opposite. Despite the rise of corporate social responsibility and new roles for sustainability advisors, Sara Parkin says: “Very few people in leadership roles today really get the magnitude of change needed. Many more feel they should know, but are too embarrassed to expose a lack of knowledge. And far too many do not consider sustainability as something to do with them - including the majority of courses on leadership and management, the worst offenders being the big business schools.” In a chapter entitled ‘Business School Betrayal’ Parkin offers a robust critique of business schools and corporate social responsibility in the private sector, arguing that very little about corporate social responsibility is close to the profound transformation needed.
