Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is at the heart of challenges faced by many countries.
For an enterprise, it is about setting a process to integrate social, environmental, ethical, human rights and consumer concerns into their business operations and core strategy in close collaboration with their stakeholders.
The EU-Africa Chamber of Commerce truly believes that Corporate Social Responsibility is a key way to help ensuring inclusiveness and sustainability in the development of Sub-Saharan Africa.
Therefore through this program and the CSR in Africa Awards, the EUACC aim to:
-
- Give a higher visibility to CSR best practices in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA)
- Raise awareness
- Showcase CSR as a tool of performance and competitiveness
- Encourage shared-value approaches
