European Alliance for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
The European Alliance on CSR is a business-lead initiative to promote CSR, launched in 2006 with strong backing from the European Commission. It is a vehicle for mobilising the resources and capacities of European enterprises and their stakeholders in the interests of sustainable development, economic growth and job creation.
Three business organisations have acted as support platforms for the European Alliance on CSR, helping to coordinate its work and to provide feedback to the European Commission and other interested parties: CSR Europe, BUSINESSEUROPE, and the European Association of Craft, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (UEAPME).
Results
In December 2008, the Alliance presented its results, which together form the toolbox for a competitive and responsible Europe.
This toolbox includes guidance on strategic issues such as responsible supply-chain management and communicating non-financial performance to investors.
