CSR Europe

CSR Europe claims to be “a non-profit organisation that promotes corporate social responsibility. Our mission is to help companies achieve profitability, sustainable growth and human progress by placing corporate social responsibility in the mainstream of business practice.” http://www.csreurope.org/

Objectives

• To help companies integrate CSR into the way they do business everyday. • To offer business managers learning, benchmarking, and capacity building opportunities. • To energise a broader stakeholder dialogue between businesses, European policy makers, governments, investors, social partners, civil society and academics. The National CSR Partner Organisations “The network of national partner organisations (NPOs) was created by CSR Europe to promote corporate social responsibility (CSR) at national level, and also to reflect the rich diversity of practices and experiences in different countries.

The network

The network, present throughout western Europe, and progressively in central and eastern Europe, constitutes a transnational business response to the European business and political agenda on CSR. The NPOs are independent CSR organisations, and together reach out to more than 1400 member companies.”

Business and human rights group

This is a business to business network that meets several times a year. The group structures its discussions around expert contributions and stakeholder dialogue, field trip seminars and what we describe as action learning; examining case studies and, with the help of experts, learning from others' experience.

Companies have the opportunity to contribute to the EC multistakeholder forum roundtable discussions, particularly on human rights & trade issues, in 2003-2004.
