Book Description
This presents the findings of Intrac's inquiry into the changing nature of relationships between NGOs and the Private Sector. By learning the lessons of such engagements, this two year research mainly funded by the Ford and Soros Foundations explores the potential for the two sectors to work together for global development in the future. The book covers a variety of important subjects affecting NGO-business relations, such as the strategy and tactics for engagement from adversarial to cosy funding partners, with the emerging middle ground of negotiated, constructive co-operation; what development NGOs might learn from environmental NGOs; and how NGOs should tackle corporate codes of conduct. Several NGO-business collaborations are documented in detail including: the WWF/Unilever-created Marine Stewardship Council; Rainforest Alliance's environmental management partnership and Chiquita in the Costa Rican banana sector; and the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industries; and Living Earth's partnership with Shell in Nigeria and the UK. By using examples from Colombia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan, the Southern and Eastern country-specific factors that determine different levels of NGO-business relations are examined.
