The meeting was convened by 1net, a coalition of This case study examines NETmundial, the Global Multistakeholder Meeting on the Future of Internet Governance, which was held in Sao Paulo, Brazil on April 23 and 24 of 2014. The meeting was convened by 1net, a coalition of stakeholder groups involved in Internet governance discussions, in partnership with the Brazilian Internet Steering Committee (CGI.br), in response to revelations of mass surveillance of communications by the United States. It sought to develop a set of universally acceptable Internet governance principles as well as a way forward for the evolution of the Internet governance system, which together could serve as a framework for the governance and use of the Internet. It convened 930 participants from 110 different countries, representing civil society, the private sector, academia, the technical community, governments and intergovernmental organizations, as well as over 1000 remote participants from 23 countries around the globe. It also employed a content contribution platform that sought to crowd source inputs from stakeholders for the production of the outcome document. The meeting served as a demonstration of the multistakeholder process in action: in the production of the outcome document, stakeholders with a diverse range of backgrounds and interests collectively negotiated the inclusion or exclusion of highly sensitive and complex issues. While the process of achieving rough consensus involved sometimes messy debates and there were procedural imperfections, the case is informative for its structured production of bottom-up multistakeholder outcomes.groups involved in Internet governance discussions, in partnership with the Brazilian Internet Steering Committee (CGI.br), in response to revelations of mass surveillance of communications by the United States.

Implementação de certificação ambiental Better Sugarcane Initiative-Bonsucro: estudo de caso no setor sucroenergético

O setor sucroenergético desempenha papel cada vez mais importante no contexto econômico brasileiro. A eficiência das empresas atuantes nesse setor passa obrigatoriamente por questões ligadas à sustentabilidade das ações desenvolvidas em seu processo produtivo, o que pode ser alavancado a partir de certificações ambientais alcançadas pelas empresas. Assim, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo verificar a aplicação de alguns dos principais princípios, critérios e indicadores para o atendimento do padrão BSI-Bonsucro de certificação. Para tanto, este estudo descritivo de natureza qualitativa foi executado por meio de estudo de caso único na empresa ALPHA, selecionada em função de sua expressiva relevância no setor sucroenergético brasileiro. A pesquisa documental teve como principal foco o Relatório de Sustentabilidade da empresa analisada, elaborado a partir do padrão Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). Como resultados observou-se que, dos seis critérios compreendidos em três dos cinco princípios selecionados para estudo, somente o critério referente ao nível máximo de dióxido de carbono emitido por tonelada de cana-de-açúcar, ainda carece de ações de melhoria para o efetivo cumprimento do que versa a certificação BSI-Bonsucro. Assim, o presente estudo demonstrou ser viável que empresas que atuam no setor analisado passem a pautar suas ações operacionais a partir da observância dos princípios, critérios e indicadores presentes na certificação BSI Bonsucro. A adoção de tal posicionamento pode possibilitar às empresas atingirem melhores resultados a partir de estratégias voltadas ao atendimento das demandas relacionadas à sustentabilidade do negócio.
