Otro reconocimiento llegó ayer a la casa. Se trata del Premio Venamcham Frank Amador 2006, mención Responsabilidad Social Empresarial, que recibió la periodista Liza López por su reportaje "La gerencia del mar crece en el estado Sucre", publicado el 3 de noviembre de 2005. Junto con ella, dos comunicadoras más fueron homenajeadas: Yiralí Pérez del diario La Verdad (de Zulia), por la inves tigación "40,5% de exportación zuliana de camarones se orienta hacia Estados Unidos", y Jessica Morales, de Globovisión por su trabajo "Comercios versus Diplomacia". En octubre de 2005, la jefatura de Suplementos le propuso a Liza López que se encargara de la coordinación del suplemento de Responsabilidad Social, que venía publicándose desde abril. "Les dije que aceptaba el reto si le dábamos un giro al tema". Afirma que es más útil para los lectores dar a conocer los beneficios que genera el plan de responsabilidad de una empresa, que el mismo programa. "Atacando los temas desde las experiencias de los favorecidos, la información produce más impacto que si se muestran sólo las cifras de inversión". Convencida de la importancia de tomar en cuenta a los favorecidos, Liza recuerda que en lo que se enteró del caso de unos pescadores que habían recibido capacitación gerencial para mejorar el proceso de pesca, inmediatamente decidió ir hasta el lugar. Fue así como se fue para Güiria, en Sucre, y conoció la experiencia de boca de los mismos beneficiados con el plan de Conoco Phillips (una compañía energética internacional). Piensa que el repunte que ha tenido en los últimos meses la responsabilidad social en el país se debe a que las empresas entendieron la importancia de hacer proyectos sustentables en el tiempo que mera filantropía. "Además, creo que las compañías comenzaron a adoptar la responsabilidad social como estrategias de negocio". Liza se graduó en la Universidad Central de Venezuela en 1994. Tiene dos posgrados: Edición de Publicación en el Centro de Formación de Periodistas de París, y Estudios Latinoamericanos en la Universidad de la Sorbona, también en Francia. Ha trabajado en los diarios El Universal y El Nacional, y es corresponsal de la revista colombiana Semana. Da clases en las universidades Central de Venezuela y en la Católica Andrés Bello. El premio es una gira por varios medios de comunicación social durante una semana en Estados Unidos.

Expanding and promoting advantages of the relationship between Venezuela and the U.S. is one of the main objectives of VenAmCham’s Frank Amador Award.
