Second Stakeholder Meeting in Debrecen (HU)
The second Local Stakeholder Group Meeting of the ACROSS project aimed to introduce the project's objectives and activities, present the implementation framework and the role of local stakeholders, and discuss the findings of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) survey.
In the first part of the meeting, the EDC team explained the project's purpose, background, partnership, and expected outcomes over its three-year implementation. They also provided an update on the project's current status, the implementation framework, and how stakeholders can contribute. Additionally, information about the first Study Visit in Alba Iulia was shared.
The second half of the meeting focused on the CSR survey conducted last year, with the contribution of local companies. This survey examined the relationship between the Municipality and local businesses, the organization of CSR activities. The results highlighted both the strengths and weaknesses of CSR activities in the city.
In conclusion, the active participation of stakeholders confirmed the project's relevance and the interest of local entities. Stakeholders are viewed as key contributors to future efforts. The CSR survey served as a central focus, providing valuable insights that validated, complemented, and expanded existing knowledge, ultimately leading to the establishment of a new goal regarding local companies' CSR activities.
