Description

Has CSR become a buzzword? We hear about CSR more and more. In the past, it used to be an additional thing companies included in their activities and communicational strategy. With the rising-up of sustainability in the global demand of goods and services, it continues to be an important tool to increase your competitive advantage, and it is also becoming a legal condition to run a business in many countries. It is the case of Europe, with the CSRD, or India. But it’s the same in many other countries. So it is now necessary for corporations, entrepreneurs (big or small), managers, employees and researchers develop a good base of knowledge on CSR.

So what is the problem now? When we come across the word CSR, we fall into a sort of confusion. Does it mean Corporate Social Responsibility or Corporate Sustainability Reporting? What is the difference between CSR and ESG? What about SDGs? Is there any relation between CSR and SDGs? What is CSRD? There is a lot to talk about, and understand when we come across this topic. This course wants to make clear the unclear! You will understand what CSR exactly is.
