CSR in the German sustainability strategy

One topic of the Work Group is according to the progress report the
credibility:

“Stakeholders often have difficulties to estimate the companiesÃ?? CSR-activities. Companies gain first of all when their activities are perceived as reliable. Thus ways and means to improve transparency have to be shown. In this context it is also discussed to what extent the companiesÃ?? activities have to be measurable and revisable.”

Furthermore the council dealt with different definitions. It defines Corporate Sustainability basically as congruent with CSR and Corporate Citizenship as one aspect.
