The New Economics Foundation (NEF) is a British think-tank that promotes social, economic and environmental justice.〔(new economics foundation website, What We Do. )〕 NEF was founded in 1986 by the leaders of The Other Economic Summit (TOES) with the aim of working for a "new model of wealth creation, based on equality, diversity and economic stability".〔(The Other Economic Summit and the New Economics Foundation )〕 The foundation has 50 staff in London and is active at a range of different levels. Its programmes include work on well-being, its own kinds of measurement and evaluation, sustainable local regeneration, its own forms of finance and business models, sustainable public services, and the economics of climate change. == Work == NEF works in the areas of community development, democracy, and economics. The foundation's work on sustainability indicators, which measures aspects of life and environment, indicated the connection between economic growth and sustainability.〔(The other economic summit and the New Economics Foundation )〕 From 1995 to 2000 NEF made social audits of companies to measure and evaluate a company's social and ethical performance according to its standards. This work was instrumental in the formation of the Institute of Social and Ethical Accountability to promote professional standards around social accounting and auditing.〔(The other economic summit and the New Economics Foundation )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Economics Foundation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
