Triple Line Consulting Ltd was established in 1999. The organisation works with Government administrations, bilateral and multilateral assistance agencies, international financing institutions, the private sector and civil society.
What is the triple line?
The ‘single bottom line’ is the profitability of a business. The ‘triple bottom line’ is a process and way of thinking. This process does not produce a number nor does it produce a certificate. It is about understanding the relationship between an economy and the human and natural environment.
We apply triple bottom line analysis in our work with the public and the private sector. We believe that the environmental and social aspects of a business or organisation should not be viewed as a constraint to keep regulators and lobbyists happy but instead to produce sustainable outcomes or to turn a company into a source of competitive advantage.
By applying principles of stakeholder participation to issues of social and environmental impact and implementing the appropriate prevention and mitigation measures, wider public needs can be reconciled with the direct interests of business.
Triple Line principles apply to both how we work and what we do.
