An Integrity Pact Between Government and Suppliers. The Code of Fair Contract Practices will consolidate the government s existing suite of conflict of interest and anti-corruption policies, including anti-bribe measures, as well as other integrity measures, such as the Values and Ethics Code for the Public Service. As an overarching framework, it will form a comprehensive statement of expectations for suppliers when dealing with public service employees, and vice versa, that will be communicated within the public service and to its suppliers. Codifying and communicating such a framework will promote awareness of the government s expectations and increase the level of transparency and accountability in this important relationship. And, over time, the Code could be expanded by incorporating new measures.

OBS

Un pacte d'intégrité entre le gouvernement et ses fournisseurs. Le Code de pratiques contractuelles équitables regroupera toute la gamme actuelle des politiques sur les conflits d'intérêts ainsi que des politiques contre la corruption, y compris les mesures visant à contrer les pots-de-vin ainsi que d'autres mesures visant à assurer l'intégrité, comme le Code de valeurs et d'éthique de la fonction publique. En qualité de cadre universel, le Code de pratiques contractuelles équitables correspondra à un énoncé détaillé des attentes à l'égard des fournisseurs lorsque ceux-ci font affaire avec des fonctionnaires, et vice-versa. Il sera diffusé à l'échelle de la fonction publique et auprès des fournisseurs. En codifiant et en communiquant un tel cadre de travail, on fera connaître les attentes du gouvernement et on accroîtra le niveau de transparence et de responsabilisation à l'égard de ces importantes relations. Avec le temps, le Code pourrait être élargi de façon à comprendre de nouvelles mesures.

Ethical consumption, also known as socially responsible consumption, is a trend where consumers ask questions about the company that produced the goods -- choosing to patronize the companies which have "positive" profiles and avoiding those with "negative" profiles.

OBS

The very name of "ethical consumption" is still an open issue, and varies from ethical consumption to consumption in solidarity, responsible consumption, and fair consumption.... The idea of "ethical consumption" should initially be based on a definition of ethics. For those who understand the concept of Ethics as the definition of criteria to identify Good and Evil, it is important for the concept of Ethical Consumption to include another idea of consumption that is not based on individualism. The word that best defines this relationship with the rest of the world is "solidarity. "It qualifies it and defines the importance of others in the ethical values on which consumption is based. In this case we are talking about "ethical consumption in solidarity. "There is also a simplified version called "consumption in solidarity", which appears in the literature referring to consumption that not only considers our personal welfare but also considers general welfare. This is a consumption in which production is completed, generating an impact on the ecosystem and society in general. Under this idea, the choice of type of consumption can benefit or hinder the creation or maintenance of the productive jobs in a specific society, the preservation of ecosystems and the promotion of the general welfare of communities, countries and the entire planet. "Responsible consumption"(an expression used in Europe, particularly in France), appears where there is an awareness of the power of consumers, which become economic units with an important role to play, just as important as businesses and market regulatory boards. It implies an idea of economy that wishes to provide answers to citizens who belong to an economic and political world that considers man as a mere consumer. In this respect, consuming in a different way represents paying attention to what the money that we give to buy goods and services is financing, thus bringing economic pressure to bear from below that compensates

CONT

The CSI [Clark Sustainability Initiative] shall be approached as a process of continuous learning and innovation open to all members of the university community. The concepts and means of measuring "sustainability" and "socially and ecologically responsible consumption practices" shall be subject to regular reassessment and reconsideration in light of new experiences and understandings.

C'est favoriser la consommation responsable, par le choix de produits sains, favorables à l'environnement et produits dans des conditions sociales respectueuses des droits de l'homme.
