Competition for Corporate Social Responsibility Launched

On 1 August 2007, “Foundation Mozaik”, along with its partners UG INFOHOUSE and the agency CSRPLUS, have officially opened the competition to select the Socially Responsible Company for 2008 in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

This is a unique opportunity to demonstrate the human side of business and at the same times strengthens BiH’s market position.  

The goal of the competition is to promote successful examples of companies’ voluntary social activities, and thereby promote philanthropy.

The deadline to apply is 15 October 2007.                     

Companies in BiH that have truly helped people and demonstrated their integrity are invited to compete in the following categories:

  •  Cause-Related Marketing
  • Corporate philanthropy,
  • Socially Responsible Corporate practices

The winner will:

  • be entitled to use the “Socially Responsible” logo throughout the year 2008;
  • go on a study trip abroad to visit similar companies;
  • receive media promotion.

Ambassador Dimitris Kourkoulas, Head of Delegation of the European Commission to BiH will chair a first-round Committee composed of experts from academia, government, non-profit and media sectors of BiH which will select nine finalists in November, and a High Committee which will select the winners per category in early December.
