SSR
Sustainable Social Responsibility
12-point Framework of Basic SSR Principles
At Solution Enablers LLP, we firmly believe that Social Responsibility, be it Corporate or Individual, is best achieved in a Sustainable manner if all stakeholders benefit from the same, in cash or kind.
The 12-point Framework of Basic Principles of SSR from Solution Enablers LLP summarize our viewpoint:
- SSR initiatives become sustainable when they are profitable in cash or kind to all the Partners and beneficiaries involved in designing, offering or consuming the initiatives.
- A sustainable SSR initiative must have clear measurable direct or indirect economic and social benefits in cash or kind.
- SSR initiatives must be aimed at helping people, communities and institutions to help themselves, and not just as charitable donations except for initial investments.
- Raising local, regional and global standards of living can address most of mankind’s current challenges.
- Any complex SSR problem is best solved in increments prioritized based on feasibility, timeliness and positive impact of the increment, rather than using a big-bang approach trying to solve the entire problem.
- A successful SSR initiative in one place is largely replicable globally with minor local adaptations.
- The direct beneficiaries of a SSR service need not be the payees for the same. Payees can be indirect beneficiaries in cash or kind.
- SSR initiatives must be inclusive in nature, involving the direct and indirect beneficiaries in design and implementation of the same.
- SSR initiatives should be designed such that they are locally relevant but universally replicable, with local customization as needed for maximum local acceptance and maximum utilization of local resources.
- SSR initiatives should result in local regional development, addressing local regional issues. SSR initiatives that lead to large-scale migration out of the region should be avoided.
- Technology should be used not only to deliver best-of-breed cost-effective solution alternatives but also to minimize the operations costs of SSR, thus maximizing the benefits to the beneficiaries.
- Every SSR initiative should aim at a curative and preventative approach based on root-cause analysis, rather than only a curative approach.
