| Acciona takes awards for developments in Poland and Mexico  Acciona Real Estate has been distinguished in Poland with the European Medal for the way the company's residential development in Lesne (Warsaw) has been integrated in the natural surroundings and for applying eco-efficient construction criteria. Similarly, Acciona Real Estate's wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary, Parque Reforma Inmobiliaria, has received the Empresa Socialmente Responsible (ESR) award, a distinction given to companies whose CSR policies set an example for others in Latin America. Both awards give recognition to companies who take on a commitment to society and the environment in all of the markets in which they operate.The European Medal - which according to its motto gives recognition to "Poles in the world" - is awarded by Poland's Business Center Club and is sponsored jointly by The European Economic and Social Committee and the Office of the Polish Committee for European Integration. The Lesne residential development, located adjacent to Warsaw's Fort Bemowo Park, has received the Medal for the way in which its architecture is perfectly integrated in the development's natural surroundings, and also for the eco-efficient criteria with which the homes have been built. Mexico's Empresa Socialmente Responsable award, for its part, is promoted jointly by the Centro Mexicano para la Filantropía(Mexican Centre for Philanthropy) and the Alianza para la Responsabilidad Empresarial en México (Alliance for Corporate Responsibility in Mexico). This annual award, which in 2009 has gone to Parque Reforma Inmobiliaria for the eighth year running, gives recognition to companies whose activity stands as an example of sound social and environmental management in Latin America. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Construction News :: home page |
