IKEA全球供應面的挑戰:印度地毯與童工問題(A) 1995年5月,瑪莉安.巴娜(Marianne Barner)正面臨一項困難的決策。她加入IKEA這家全球最大的傢俱零售商已屆滿兩年,且她擔任地毯業務區域經理亦已屆滿兩個月,此時,她思考著是否應該與一家主要的印度地毯供應商終止往來關係,雖然此舉可能會影響公司的貨源供應,並衝擊銷售業績,但是她也發覺支持這個決定的理由頗為明確。因為一家德國電視公司最近揭露一項調查報告,顯示該供應商僱用童工來生產地毯,並供貨給IKEA公司。讓巴娜感到挫折的是,這家形象良好的大型供應商,與IKEA其他供應商一樣,在最近與公司簽署的一項供應合約附加條款中,明訂禁止雇用童工,否則該合約將遭到取消。 然而,巴娜瞭解,比眼前更為棘手的問題是,IKEA應該對此問題採取何種長期策略。一方面,由於業界對於印度地毯業剝削童工的現象頗為關切,迫使她必須簽訂此條款來回應此訴求。而最近由製造業者、進口商、零售業者、及印度民間組織所成立的聯盟,提出一項「地毯標籤」的新措施,在那些經查證並無使用童工生產的地毯,貼上認證標籤以示區別。巴娜也已經與瑞典拯救兒童組織進行協調,該

While talking to parents how will you convince them that play is also learning? (200 words) I believe that children, through play, act out and explore new things that mould them for the future. I see these as "trial experiences" that represent a much bigger and more deep-rooted exploration of their society, rules and surroundings. Exploratory play offers them the chance to discover and learn all about their surroundings first hand while games with role playing allow them to act out what they perceive
