MANY PEOPLE WANT TO HELP, FEW KNOW HOWEveryone thinks helping is easy.Most do it out of convenience. Does anything think about the impact of their deeds?Some help out of pity, and they get angry when they see the recipients have a nice meal or buy something nice.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITYDo CSR programs have ulterior motives?Financial Motives?Improve Image?Advertising?Counter the claims of pressure?Regulated and mandated by law?Part of Public Relations?Avoiding Regulations?

EXAMPLES OF CSRCSR of mining companies build hospital and schools in village to have access to open cast mining operations in the vicinityCSR donates 1% of profits to charities and use “recipients” as models for marketing campaignsCSR initiative forcing employees to pick up trash on the beach or clean an old folks home.Through CSR, companies are trying to appeal to ethical consumers but also to undermine the principle of ethical consumption.

CORPORATE CITIZEN FOR CORPORATE RIGHTSAre CSR programs corporate attempts to increase corporate dominance, rather than a defensive “image management”The term 'corporate citizen', used to describe corporations that are attempting to be socially responsible, creates a new image of the corporation as an entity which has rights, feelings, a legitimate voice in a democracy, and which behaves in a moral manner.
![Page 29: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
CORPORATE CITIZEN FOR CORPORATE RIGHTSTheir involvement is bought by their 'commitment' to CSR and 'sustainability', and gives them the opportunity to dominate the agenda and put across their view of how the world should be run.
![Page 30: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENTHow much of actual support from the government is done for political gains?Are some activities done just for show?
![Page 31: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
CORPORATE FUNDINGWhen funding of NGOs, civil groups come from only one source, and the source decides to exert pressure to play key roles. They can really shape discourse, good or bad, and sometimes, for specific gains.
Or is the Corporation funding just for one thing: “Access to emerging market”?
![Page 32: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Is helping any help?
Not really…At least not in the way we are doing it…
![Page 33: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Often when we help…We make life decisions for
those we are helping.
![Page 34: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Often when we help…We fail to see the whole picture
and feel content to help.
![Page 35: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Often when we help…We search the approach most efficient to
us not to those we are trying to help.
![Page 36: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Often when we help…We destroy the very same environment
we are trying to help.
![Page 37: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Often when we help…we displace local capacity.
![Page 38: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Often when we help…we measure our success by the delivery
of help or completion of actions not actual impact.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN DISASTER STRIKES IS AN UNFORTUNATE TWIST OF FATE.
![Page 40: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
WHAT HAPPENS AFTERWARDS IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY…
![Page 41: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
When disaster strikes…
Some people are given a burden:
The burden of enduring the disaster and the conditions that follow
![Page 42: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
When disaster strikes…
Some people are given a gift:
The gift of being sparedfrom disaster.
![Page 43: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
How can we not use our
gift to lift the burden of
others?
![Page 44: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Disaster Response Lies…
• Only experts can help.
• You will be a burden in the field.
• We don’t need anything, we have all we need.
• Do not send clothes or food, send money.
![Page 45: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
We all can respond…
• And guarantee an efficient response…
• Donate Action, not money, not words…
• But how?
![Page 46: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Disaster Response Basics:You can be useful in the field if…
• Bring your own supplies and food to the field.– Or buy them locally if possible.
• Engage the local stakeholders and work for them, with them.
• Are connected.
• Have independent mobility.
• Listen, learn, respect.
![Page 47: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Relief 2.0 (what is it?)
• A focus on running the last mile in disaster relief
• through independent units of local stakeholders and foreign volunteers in the field
• supported by mobile technologies and social networks
• to fill the gaps created by bureaucracy and slow response from top-down hierarchies.
![Page 48: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Relief 2.0 (how does it work?)
• Individuals and organizations report incidents, needs and requests from the field using their mobile phones and the Internet.
![Page 49: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Relief 2.0 (how does it work?)
• These incidents are reviewed, verified, completed, enhanced and their information spread to others
by individuals and groups on social networks– Housewives, youngsters, volunteers, anyone.
until they are addressed, solved or matched with someone who takes care of it.
![Page 50: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Relief 2.0 (the last mile)
• Small independent units then complete the cycle by actually addressing those issues and delivering the response required and supported by the social network.

When disaster strikes…The social infrastructure remains, people’s capacity is untouched…
![Page 53: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

Who are the people who survive disaster?
![Page 57: Do CSR programs and helping really work](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081604/587c711a1a28abd04e8b5a7b/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Disasters create survivors,they don’t create refugees.
It is the conventional relief system what turns survivors into refugees.

Disasters do not destroy knowledge or capacity
Teachers are still teachers, doctors are still doctors, nurses are still nurses, carpenters are still carpenters…

There are so many new problems happening everyday. Complaining does not solve problems, protesting does not solve problems.There is only so much the government or NGOs can do. Being big and bureaucratic allows them to act fast and raise lots of funds, but they are slow to respond to changes.We need innovation and people to take actions and accountability.We all live on the sample planet.
