Engagement Cycle for Sustainability – EncycleS

持続可能な社会が営まれるための対話の輪(好循環)が続くようにと、2008年にロンドンで立ち上げた社会人勉強会&交流会につけた名前でした。

その名前は、今に続く考え方の原点の一つかもしれません。

個人として、会社として、国として、社会として、どうしたら長期的に暮らしやすくできるか。「サステナビリティ」や「ESG」は何を意味するのか。私たちの生活とどう関係があるのか。

これらの問いに向き合う情報源の一つとして、ここで発信して参ります。

中には他社や他団体を通じて発信させて頂いているものもありますが、許可が頂けた場合はそれらもここで紹介して行きます。

主に以下のように分類します:

唯一の解が無いからこそ、頭の体操と話しのネタ、そして初めの一歩となるきっかけが見つかれば幸いです。

Engagement Cycle for Sustainability, or EnCycleS for short.

This was the name of the monthly gatherings created in London 2008, in hope that a virtuous cycle of engagement across different stakeholders would continue to achieve a truly sustainable society.

The core principles behind this name still stand true for me today.

How do we make our living environment comfortable in the long term as individuals, companies, countries and society?
What does “sustainability” or “ESG” really mean, and how do they relate to our daily lives?

Here you will find some information I have either published through other organisations, or information unique to this site.

These will generally fall into the following categories:

  • My personal ESG
  • Responsible Investor Column (RI Column)
  • Sustainable Events

There is no perfect single answer to address sustainability. So I do hope this website may in some way serve to stimulate the brain, add to conversations, and at times lead to a baby step forward for someone in the world.

*Note – My apologies to English readers that most of my posts in this category will be in Japanese for the time being, to address the asymmetry of information. You can either enjoy the wonders of auto-translation, or wait until I start communicating the world of Japanese initiatives in English – coming shortly!
