Dialogue: e- waste
Used electronic equipment can be a valuable resource but poses significant challenges, especially in developing countries where much of this equipment ends up. Mobile phones represent a relatively small segment of the waste mountain, compared to bulkier electronics such as personal computers and monitors, but the numbers will mount as mobile ownership spreads rapidly.

Dialogue:
Privacy and Mobiles

As technology provides ever more ways for people to communicate and interact, we are faced with difficult dilemmas about how to balance privacy and security. See the views of four experts and tell us your views on such a challenging topic.

The Vodafone CR Dialogues explore key issues we face in our relationship with society. They cover topics that are specific to the telecommunications industry (such as privacy and accessibility) and also those that reflect approaches to corporate responsibility (such as stakeholder engagement and assurance).

Learning from many experiences
There is more than one point of view to any issue and sometimes achieving consensus can be difficult. We want to explore these issues fully and the opinions of others are therefore of great value. Our aim is to consider new ideas and stimulate debate. Through Dialogue we hope to make our CR investment more effective and to help other organisations do the same by bringing together a wide range of informed views and experiences.

Convergence of CR Reporting and Stakeholder Engagement
The Vodafone CR Dialogues are at the interface of our reporting and engagement programmes. Our CR report identifies our most material issues and our engagement probes the views of experts and other stakeholders. Through the Dialogues we have an opportunity to explore subjects in depth from different perspectives.

We will only succeed if we stimulate responses. We want to debate what works and what doesn't and to be prepared to challenge accepted wisdom. We plan to test new proposals through Vodafone's own CR programme.

Stakeholder Engagement

Engagement is extremely valuable for Vodafone and we think that it is also valuable to our stakeholders. We have learned a lot from our engagement experience globally and we think that sharing this knowledge could be useful for other companies and stakeholders.
