Can CSR be a driver for competitiveness in industrial sectors?

In November 2008 the European Commission announced co-financing or initiatives to support CSR in three industrial sectors: chemicals, textile and construction. All the initiatives are multistakeholder, involving actors such as industry associations, trade unions, NGOs and public authorities.

Small and medium-sized enterprises are themain target group.  Based on the experience of these projects, the European Commission aims to draw conclusions about whether and how CSR can be a driver for the competitiveness of different industrial sectors.
