IFU CSR Review og kursus i Offentlig-Privat Samarbejde

Vi vandt Industrialiseringsfonden for Udviklingslandenes udbud af “Review of IFU CSR Policy” i Sydlige og Østafrika. Vi er i fuld gang med at gennemføre de første reviews, der er en meget opløftende oplevelse.

Vi er samtidig ved at gøre os klar til at modtage dette års kursister på Danida Fellowship Centre kurset i Offentlig-Privat Samarbejde - det glæder vi os meget til.

Socialt ansvar skaber vækst

Af Andrea Luth, Erhvervsbladet

Du skal tænke socialt ansvar ind i din virksomhedsstrategi, hvis du vil hjælpe andre, samtidig med at du selv skaber vækst.

Now working with the challenge of communicating how we succeed in our work, we are asked what is it exactly Sociability is doing?

Well …. in our attempt to contribute to a socially balanced and sustainable economic development we assist companies define and integrate their corporate social responsibility into their core business operations.

Yes, we assist identifying a number of strong business cases and maybe more importantly, we help identify which of these profitable scenarios that can mobilise and commit all-important stakeholders to its effective implementation and hence the intended impact.

In short for us Corporate Social Responsibility is:

“The commitment of functional businesses to contribute to sustainable economic development by working with employees, their families, the local community and society at large to improve their lives in ways that are good for business and for development”

I fully adhere to this statement:

"Sustainability is boring. What would you say if I were to ask you about your relationship with your wife? How would you characterise it? As sustainable? If this is the bigger goal - sustainability - then I feel really sorry because it doesn't celebrate human creativity and human nature"
