Enterprise 2020
In the context of today's socio-economic and environmental challenges, CSR Europe invites companies and stakeholders across Europe to join the journey towards a more sustainable and responsible future - Enterprise 2020.
Since its inception in 1995, CSR Europe has engaged in a proactive dialogue with the European business community, policy makers and other stakeholders. The next milestone initiative to be launched in October 2010 will look towards building a vision for 2020.
The Enterprise 2020 initiative is supported by CSR Europe's members and national partners, the European Commission and several European governments, including the Spanish and Belgian EU Presidencies in 2010.
What is Enterprise 2020 about?
For companies and their stakeholders, Enterprise 2020 is a unique opportunity to shape the future of CSR in Europe through dialogue and joint action. The initiative aims to:
- Support companies in building sustainable competitiveness by providing a platform for exchange and innovation
- Foster close cooperation between companies and their stakeholders by exploring new ways of working together
- Strengthen Europe's global leadership on CSR by engaging with EU institutions and other stakeholders
What themes does Enterprise 2020 cover?
Based on a consultation and collaboration process with CSR Europe's members, national partners and key stakeholders, the initiative will include various activities in four broad thematic areas:
- Transforming Markets - Towards sustainable internal and external markets
