How can business promote social justice activism?
How can businesses take part in movements for social and environmental justice? By examining their practices and changing for the better — and advocating for peers to do the same — businesses can unlock enormous potential for positive change. We delve into business activism for the next episode of our?Forces For Good?podcast, available now on all platforms.
It might seem like a strange question — business is a core driver of negative impacts, from economic inequality to environmental extraction. But activism has a place in corporate boardrooms, and businesses can enable activist work both among their employees and in their actions at a corporate level.?As we launch episode 4 of our podcast, we explore what exactly it means to be a business activist — or an activist business.
How can business activism help companies break beyond working towards what is ‘possible,’ and envisioning what is truly needed to improve life for all people and the planet??How is business activism tied to collective action in the business community, and how can they complement each other??We answer these vital questions, and more, with the help of our guests; Amanda Gordon, Chief Customer Officer at? Future Super , Charmian Love, Co-Founder, B Lab UK and Global Director of Advocacy at #BCorp? Natura &Co , and Pavithra Ram , Impact Navigator at fellow B Corp, Tony's Chocolonely .
