Advances and obstacles to the development of corporate social responsibility: a look back at the #RSEHalteAuxBlablas conferences

Three conferences were organized to mark the 10th anniversary of ISO 26000, the international standard on social responsibility (SR). The aim is to share concrete examples, as well as the obstacles encountered in developing RS in companies, sectors and regions.

Small and medium-sized businesses and public operators are still too unfamiliar with social responsibility. And yet, it is a definite asset in achieving the 17 sustainable development goals adopted by the United Nations.

For 10 years now, ISO 26000 has been meeting this ambition. This voluntary standard is at the crossroads of all the primary challenges facing organizations, and enables them to act according to their specific needs, company by company, sector by sector, and in all regions…

To testify to its practical usefulness, but also to the obstacles encountered, public and private players shared their experiences at three conferences, sponsored by Stéphanie Kerbarh, MP for Seine-Maritime and Chair of the French National Assembly’s CSR study group.
