The second phase of “CSR for All” project has started, which is going to deal with the promotion of CSR concept of companies as well as with nonfinancial reporting of companies.
The Grant Contract for the “Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) for All Project” was signed between the Turkish Confederation of Employer Associations (TISK) and the European Commission on November 30, 2012. The first two years of the four-year Project implemented under the leadership of TISK in cooperation with South East European Employer Organizations (EO) and the International Organization of Employers (IOE) has been completed. As in the Phase I, this Project will continue to conduct its activities for particularly strengthening the capacities of EOs and enterprises on CSR and also on Sustainability Reporting which is the new theme of the Phase II. In the course of Phase II, Serbian and Bulgarian EOs have also become the partners of the Project and the number of partnering organizations is increased to eight.
Overall objective of the project is to contribute to more dynamic civil society organizations who are actively participating in public debate on democracy, human rights, social inclusion and the rule of law, with a capacity to influence policy and decision-making processes. Specific objectives are to build awareness and capacity in partnership/network of employer organizations (EOs) in South East Europe Region regarding Sustainability Reporting (SR) in order to improve their participation in multi-stakeholder dialogue as well as their influence on public sector reform process at national and international levels and to create awareness and build capacity in the network of employer organizations (EOs) in the region to guide enterprises through transparency and accountability for their positive impacts on society and to integrate social, environmental, ethical, human rights and consumer concerns into their business operations and core strategy.
