Many future-oriented businesses are implementing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards to give back to their local communities, ensure their development, and build trust-oriented organizations.
The Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE) and AmChams in Europe launched the Promoting Trust in Business Initiative to shed light on the best examples of how companies operating in Eastern and Southeastern Europe are putting ESG principles into practice and enhancing their operations to build trust with local communities.
In the scope of the Initiative, we launched an E-brochure of eight case studies, selected among the 30 companies and organizations that submitted their projects from 10 countries. The brochure includes detailed examples of how companies and organizations increased the trust they enjoy from their local communities by engaging in sustainable practice and giving back to society.
More About the Initiative:
More than 30 companies and organizations from 10 countries participated and submitted their projects. The initiative highlights eight outstanding projects from the following companies and organizations, spanning five countries (Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Serbia, Slovenia, Ukraine).
