PERUVIAN PARTNERSHIPS - A new model of
sustainable business practice that respects indigenous
wisdom. Large corporations aided by a contemptible global
economic system, perpetuate notoriously poor business
practices in the majority world. From outsourcing
production to 'sweatshops' in the Far East to
appropriating bio-diverse rainforests for the timber
trade, it seems there is no end to the lengths these
businesses will go to pillage natural resources and in
turn exacerbate climate change. But not all businesses
are the same, and social entrepreneurship is one area
where concerned individuals are setting a precedent for
more sustainable, ethical and equitable business
practices.
