The Handprint is an innovative and holistic approach to facilitate the measurement, evaluation, and communication of the ecological, economic and social sustainability impacts of products. The footprint approach focuses on negative ecological impacts on individuals, organisations or countries. The handprint on the other hand supports determining, measuring and evaluating the positive sustainability impacts including the social and economic dimension.
Call for Collaboration
The number of labels and claims on sustainability advantages of products and services marketed in the European Union is at an all-time high. But, does this mean that consumers are truly empowered and enabled to make informed decisions? The European Commission thinks they aren’t. To meet this challenge, the European Union has launched the Green Claims Directive, an important initiative to set standards and restore confidence in environmental claims and labelling.
Updates from the co-do! lab
As head of Sustainable Business and Entrepreneurship at the CSCP, Alexander Mannweiler has a good understanding of the challenges businesses face today. He believes that companies that are able to integrate sustainability into their management systems increase their innovation potential and become more competitive.
