WBCSD and IBLF facilitate partnerships between development organizations and business

Geneva, 28 April 2006 - One year ago, two of the world’s leading responsible business specialists joined forces and launched "A business guide to development actors", a guide for business managers interested in working with development organizations, but unsure where to begin in their search for effective partners.

The profiles introduce companies to some of the main development actors and showcase the diversity of the development community and the ways in which its goals and strategies are converging with those of business.

The guide supports an online database that features additional organizations and allows managers to quickly identify which organizations are working on common areas of interest.

Due to overwhelming demand, the WBCSD and the International Business Leaders Forum (IBLF) are now now launching an online submission form that easily allows development organizations to add their profile to the online database. Business managers who have worked with development organizations and would like to recommend them for inclusion in this guide are also welcome to contact the WBCSD with suggestions. Organizations that are already featured online are welcome to submit an updated profile.

A business guide to development actors ( 1 MB), published in late 2004 by the WBCSD and IBLF, included the profiles of 30 organizations, which offer only a glimpse of the more comprehensive web-based tool.
