The World Business Council's CEV approach offers a 'value-based' lens and ability to factor ecosystem values into business decision-making, through which associated environmental, social, economic and financial issues can be quantified, and the complex trade-offs between them compared. |

Costs of Company-Community Conflict in the Extractive Sector.
Rachel Davis & Daniel Franks (2014) This research shows that most extractive
companies do not currently identify, understand and aggregate the full range of
costs of conflict with local communities. Although company-community conflict may
generate the same broad effects as those caused by technical problems,
contractual or regulatory disputes, or environmental or safety breakdowns (such
as a reduction in or suspension of operations), it is typically not given
equivalent attention or resources. Download pdf here: http://www.hks.harvard.edu/m-rcbg/CSRI/research/Costs%20of%20Conflict_Davis%20%20Franks.pdf

New WHO report, Health in Impact Assessements: Opportunities not to be missed (2014)
Free download:http://www.euro.who.int/en/health-topics/environment-and-health/health-impact-assessment/publications/2014/health-in-impact-assessments-opportunities-not-to-be-missed This publication aims to provide a detailed and balanced view on “health
in impact assessments”. Five key types of impact assessment, namely
environmental impact assessment, strategic environmental assessment,
social impact assessment, sustainability assessment, and HIA are
presented, and four key questions are discussed: How can the various
assessments contribute to promoting and protecting human health? How can
further integration of health support the various forms of impact
assessments? What forms of integration seem advisable? What priorities
for further development?

between large-scale projects and the territories
hosting them, within the Brazilian Amazon region.
Lead by a partnership between the Center for Sustainability
Studies of the Getúlio Vargas Foundation
(GVces) and the International Finance Corporation
(IFC) of the World Bank Group, this path was made
possible through the engagement of over 300 people,

Greenland wants to develop the mineral resources area into
one of the country’s primary and principal business sectors.
This is to be done in close collaboration and dialogue
with the Greenlandic population. Understanding the interaction
between mineral projects and Greenlandic society is
therefore essential in order to create sustainable relations
between mineral resources companies, municipalities, affected
individuals, other stakeholders as well as Greenlandic
society in general.

This report investigates the nature and consequences of conflict in infrastructure projects in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study on this scale at the infrastructure industry. A hybrid quantitative and qualitative research approach provided the data for the study. 32 interviews were conducted with 42 sustainability experts involved in the development of infrastructure in LAC. Then, a database of 200 conflict-affected infrastructure projects across six sectors was created to assess the nature and drivers of conflicts, the companies’ response to conflicts, and the material implications for projects, companies, and societies. |

The purpose of this paper is to assess the responses of fishers to the impacts of climate variability and change in two small islands. Little is known of how persons are adapting to climate change within the Caribbean and the South Pacific, two of the most affected regions in the world. The research broadly sets out to answer the following questions: (1) what is the level of perception of climate change and its impacts among key stakeholders who rely on the coastal environment for their livelihoods? (2) what climate change adaptation plans and options have been implemented within these livelihoods? This study uses a survey questionnaire to elicit data on perception, adaptation measures, demographic and other factors from eighty fishermen on two islands, Antigua and Efate. We found that the fishers’ perceptions did not always match the meteorological data. Nevertheless
all fishers had implemented various adaptation strategies, some of which were considered to be routine practices. This study points to the need for greater support and investment by public and private sector agencies to enable fishers to better respond to climate variability and change. |
