Sustainability: What?
What is CSR
The responsibility of an organization for the impacts of its decisions and activities on society and
environment, through transparent and ethical behaviour that:
- Contributes to sustainable development
- Takes the expectations of stakeholders into account
- Is in compliance with law and international norms
- Is integrated in the organization
It is a PROCESS to integrate social, environmental, ethical, human rights and consumer concerns
into business operations and their core strategy in collaboration with the stakeholders
- Identify, prevent and mitigate possible adverse impacts
- Maximize the creation of shared value for owners and stakeholders
CSR is for all types of organizations and is a useful management tool for:
- Innovation and growth
- Employee motivation
- Customer attraction
- Risk management
- Operational management
CSR is a process, not a final destination
- An integral vision on entrepreneurship where the company creates value in PPP fields
- Requires engagement from stakeholders
- Legal obligations towards society and environment
- Embedded in all business operations
- There is no one-size-fits all methodology
- It is voluntary
- It must be transparent
- It is long-term oriented
Shared value
= a win win situation
Create economic value in a way that also creates value for the society by addressing its needs and
challenges
The purpose of a corporation must be redefined as creating shared value, and not just profit. This will
drive the next wave of innovation and productivity growth in the global economy (Michael Porter)
,Sustainability: why?

License to operate

opportunities for growth
Reputation
CSR is good for the image of the company, therefore it is a good idea to communicate
activities
Sustainability: history
1972: CLUB OF ROME

every 20 years there would be a new book about an update of the CSR definition
1987: WCED: BRUNDTLAND REPORT
The World Commission of Environment and Development placed environmental issues on the
agenda
1992: UNCED: AGENDA 21
UN Conference on Environment and Development had a voluntary action plan with regards to
sustainable development
2000: Millenium Summit: MDGs
Millenium development goals (8 goals) by 2015 but did not reach it. All 189 UN members
states and 23 international organizations committed to help achieve the MDGs
2015: Sustainable Development Goals: SDGs
Transform our world, 17 goals by 2030
CSR is not a new concept. A large proportion of organisation have done things that could be called
CSR even if they do not know it. Now there is a more growing attention to CSR by policy-makers,
consumers, trade unions and NGOs. These actors should give more recognition to what organizations
already do in this field. The challenge is to get more organisations to do more CSR
Sustainability: how?
