Mr. Peter Michel Heilmann, President, EuroCharity, commented on the forthcoming book presentations: "We are very excited about the sustainability-driven corporations and distinguished guest authors from around the world that are participating in our new English-language album. With a global distribution and readership, the 'EuroCharity Yearbook 2010: The Future of Responsible Investing' is a very timely and important international publication on responsible investing locally, regionally and globally. The 4th EuroCharity Yearbook also touches on a wide spectrum of related themes, including microfinance, climate change, Rio+20, the Europe 2020 strategy, the Danish government's Energy Strategy 2050, the green economy, sustainability and integrated reporting, ethical banking, transparency, stakeholder engagement and much more. We hope that it will highlight critical issues and help galvanise public opinion into positive action."

About the EuroCharity Yearbook
The idea to launch the first multi-stakeholder EuroCharity Yearbook germinated when, in 2007, Greece was experiencing an environmental and social crisis of unprecedented dimensions -- devastating forest fires. During the summer of 2007 this grievous ecological crisis created a huge social uproar and made headline news globally. EuroCharity's founders, who themselves had been surrounded by huge wildfire flames in the Peloponnese, decided to do something about this horrendous occurrence rather than be passive observers.
The inaugural "EuroCharity Yearbook 2007: The Spirit of the Forest" was published in Greek in June 2008.
A year later, the EuroCharity Yearbook 2008 focused on Sustainability & Green Development and how they have an impact on competitiveness, entrepreneurship and innovation.
The third "EuroCharity Yearbook 2009: It's a Matter of Culture...", published last year, highlighted the importance of corporate culture.
The English-language "EuroCharity Yearbook 2010: The Future of Responsible Investing", published in June 2011, informs key stakeholders on the latest trends, research, indices, best practices, case studies, intelligence and viewpoints related to this important theme.
