CSR Platforms
Corporate Social Responsibility looks different from country to country.
In some EU Member states the concept is well established and there is a high level of enterprise awareness supported by effective public policies to promote CSR.
In other European countries, the awareness and development of corporate social responsibility is much less advanced.
In 2011 the European Commission published a compendium of public CSR policies in the EU which gives an overview of public policies on CSR in the 27 EU Member States and the European Union.
EU support for CSR in Central and Eastern European countries :
The European Commission (Directorate-General for Employment and Social Affairs) is supporting the United Nations Development Programme in a project called "Accelerating CSR in New Europe", which will enable the measuring and monitoring of CSR performance in Bulgaria, Hungary, Lithuania, Poland and Slovakia.
The European Commission is also co-financing national multistakeholder platforms for the development of CSR in four countries: Croatia, Estonia, FYROM and Slovakia.
