Ceres-ACCA Reporting Awards
Since 2002, Ceres and the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) have given out annual awards recognizing excellence in sustainability reporting in North America. The awards are presented each year at the Ceres Conference.
In 2011, Ceres announced it would be replacing its North American-based sustainability reporting awards program with a newly-designed awards program that will focus more broadly on leading practice in sustainability governance, disclosure and stakeholder engagement. The new awards program will be announced in the near future.
Until then, please direct all inquiries to Kristen Lang at 617-247-0700 x128 | lang@ceres.org.
Previous Winners
2010 Best Sustainability Report: Nike
Nike’s report addresses the new context within which business must operate—one with a rising global population, decreasing natural resources, and an unstable climate—and reveals how Nike, in an effort to take a competitive advantage, is shifting to a more sustainable business model. In the report, Nike recognizes that “sustainability is a route to profitability,” and to that end the report details how the company is integrating sustainability into strategic planning and decision-making, from its board of directors, to its product designers and across its supply chain. The report also demonstrates the company’s commitment to scaling sustainability solutions through the open sourcing of its audit and design tools and its integral role in the creation of the Green Xchange platform.
2010 Best First Time Report: Anvil Knitwear
Anvil Knitwear’s first sustainability report demonstrates the company’s commitment to the integration of sustainability into its business model. The company uses the web to deliver a compelling report and candidly describes key challenges facing the company and its industry. Anvil also drives consumer education through its interactive website TrackMyT.com, which allows customers to input the tracking number from a t-shirt and learn how the product was produced from farm to store.
