Global trends and tomorrow's CSR

Project Context

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has always been a dynamic concept. As the roles and relationships of public, private and civil society actors are being renegotiated, the expectations regarding the responsible management of business processes keep evolving. What will CSR look like in the future?

Project Objective

The study investigates two main questions:

• What are the global trends that impact on the responsible management of companies? 
• What tools are emerging to respond to these trends?

Project Output

Results of the study inform upcoming publications of the Bertelsmann Stiftung. An Op-Ed will be submitted to a number of newspapers. A longer version of the paper is available on www.csr-weltweit.de and here >
