Businesses as a force for Good - How businesses are changing the World
Feb. 13, 2019 12:00 p.m.
The talk will explore the rising trend of social enterprises and how they contribute to global development and poverty reduction. Using his own experience, Rafik will highlight the main criticism to mainstream development models and provide the audience with Canadian examples of social enterprises that are doing good at home and abroad. Rafik has studied and worked in Canada, Egypt, Germany, England, and Tanzania on issues related to poverty, environment, climate change, and tourism policies in developing countries. He has worked with bilateral organizations such as the UK Department for International Development and the Canadian International Development Agency, as well as with central and local governments on policy design and project implementation. Rafik co-founded SALT, a fair trade social enterprise working with several communities in Africa and Latin America. Realising that there was little done to promote fair trade and social enterprises in North America, Rafik shifted his focus to help create an enabling environment for social enterprises to thrive by improving their access to the consumers and to buyers. He founded the " Buy Good. Feel Good." Expo in 2014.

The Recognition was established in 1957 to encourage and show appreciation for substantial contributions to worthy recipients from within our Club and to members of our community who embody the values of Paul Harris. Lynda Ryder, Past President of Rotary Etobicoke & Past District Governor of Rotary District 7070, will highlight both the local and global contribution made by the Club. Michael Bell, Past President of Rotary Etobicoke & Past District Governor of Rotary District 7070, will outline the importance of the Paul Harris Recognition and speak to the special values that are embodied in this recognition.

Comprehensive training session on waste management for fundraising events sponsored by the Rotary Club of Burlington Lakeshore and the Rotary Club of Etobicoke. Both clubs carry out a Ribfest every year and one of the biggest challenges has been to address waste management at the event. It has been suggested that proper management of waste resources employing composting and recycling is not only the right thing to do from a social and environmental perspective but is also a moral responsibility covered by Rotary’s Four Way Test. To that end, over the past few years, both clubs have employed procedures to divert waste from disposal through recycling and composting. Our efforts have achieved excellent results such that both clubs have been achieving 75% to 90% waste diversion. A blog highlighting Etobicoke’s results last year can be found here. The key reason for having this published is to inspire other clubs and organizations to do the same. Should your club be interested in training for events, Burlington Lakeshore and Etobicoke Rotary clubs are providing a workshop on Saturday, April 27th to go over the key points of planning for waste management at events. Some of the areas to be covered include the following:
We will be ordering a light lunch and coffee for those attending. We would ask that each person provide $10 to pay for lunch. Please respond with if you, or someone else from your club are able to attend. Looking forward to seeing you there!! |
