The social and environmental responsibility of corporations

“Corporate Social Responsibility” in Israel and Germany

Participants benefitted from a thorough exchange of experiences from professionals in Israel and Germany. Throughout the day, it became apparent that CSR in Germany is strongly embedded in the concept of the Social Market Economy, whereas in Israel it is understood and used primarily as an engine of social innovation.%%%Translation by Nicole Herbert

Strategies to adapt to climate change – the legislature's role

Die Rolle der Legislative in Israel

For many years, environmental organizations in Israel under the supervision of the umbrella organization Life & Environment (L&E) have been involved in a coherent climate policy. According to the environmentalists, the legislation has some gaps and ambiguities. Furthermore, the implementation of the National Plan for reducing environmentally harmful emissions is lagging behind the objectives. According to L&E, the most urgent need of action is in the fields of transportation, renewable energies, planning and construction as well as in a behavioural change in the population.
