The Lead the Charge (LtC) evaluates the efforts of 18 of the world’s leading automakers to reduce emissions, negative environmental impacts, and human rights violations in their supply chains based on 88 indicators, and publishes the results as the Leaderboard. We at EcoNetworks supported the Sunrise Project, an international NPO that leads LtC project, to translate the website content, the 2025 edition of their reports, and press release for the Leaderboard into Japanese.

A manufacturing company recently consulted with us about conducting field research on multiple topics related to a sustainable society. We at EcoNetworks supported the selection of entities in the field research and coordinated the visits.

The BPF’s CSR Committee publishes a research studies report every year, which brings together the committee’s case presentations and discussions that play out several times during the year, along with the studies conducted by the secretariat. In FY2022, EcoNetworks not only wrote the reports for the major studies, but it also compiled the interview surveys of leading corporations and summarized the key points discussed by the committee.

We supported MHD to examine and set KPIs for sustainable management as well as major social issues in Japan in order to advance sustainability efforts in Japan.
