Companies with an outstanding commitment to sustainable development are invited to enter the 2020 Global Corporate Sustainability Awards (GCSA).
2020 GCSA is hosted by the Alliance for Sustainable Development Goals (A•SDGs), co-organised by Taiwan Academy of Corporate Sustainability (TACS), Taiwan Institute for Sustainable Energy (TAISE), and Center for Corporate Sustainability (CCS). The awards embrace the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outlined in the UN’s 2030 agenda.
GCSA has four key objectives:
- Promoting corporate sustainability principles and SDG practices.
- Recognising corporate efforts toward sustainable development.
- Honouring companies that provide complete disclosure of economic, environmental, social and governmental performance and clearly communicate sustainability performance and impacts through sustainability reporting.
- Encouraging individuals who contribute to positive impacts and accomplish outstanding successes in sustainability.
GCSA offers awards and recognition in three major categories: Outstanding Professional, Sustainability Reporting, and Best Practice.
GCSA-Outstanding Professional highlights exemplary individuals who have made outstanding contributions to sustainable development within their respective organisations. Individuals can be nominated for this award by government agencies, corporations, or academic organisations.
GCSA-Sustainability Reporting rewards those corporations that disclose information in their corporate social responsibility reports that is complete, reliable, and transparent.
GCSA-Best Practice recognises outstanding performance in sustainable development business practices and projects.
Past winners have included Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) from the US, Siemens from Germany, ASUSTeK from Taiwan, GSB from Thailand, Vale Indonesia and JANAJAL from India.
