Companies across the world are increasingly concerned about the impacts that their businesses have on societies in their home countries as well as abroad.
Oxfam has developed a methodology that fits these needs. 'Oxfam's Poverty Footprint- Understanding Business Contribution to Development' is based on decades-long experience of working in development and with business and it has been tried with a number of companies. The Briefing for Business summarises how a business can benefit from analysing its impact on society, outlines the Poverty Footprint Methodology and describes how a Poverty Footprint Study is conducted.
