International Corporate Social Responsibility (ISCR)

Many Dutch companies purchase products directly or indirectly from abroad. The fifty fastest-growing countries are all emerging economies. These economies are important potential trade partners for Dutch businesses. MVO Nederland supports entrepreneurs who want to engage in international socially responsible business in or with emerging markets and developing countries.

Trading abroad offers market opportunities for Dutch SMEs, but also brings responsibilities. By doing business in a future-proof and sustainable way, you can both make a profit and have a positive influence on working conditions, corruption and environmental issues. That is International Corporate Social Responsibility, also known as ICSR.
