Statement from the CSR Europe Board on the War in Ukraine
In the light of the war in Ukraine, the Board of CSR Europe urges all stakeholders to act upon their Collective Social Responsibility.
There is an immediate need to work towards fundamental respect of the rule of law, safeguarding human rights, and restoring an open, respectful, and sustainable society.
Governments, companies, and civil society need to work together to make the words of the UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, a reality: it’s not too late to save this generation from the scourge of war.
