Based on the success of the last year’s CSR Awareness Week we would like to invite and encourage you to participate in this year’s activity as well commencing on 27 June 2022.

Similarly to last year, we are providing you with the basic information on how to participate in the CSR Awareness Week 2022. Registration will be open until June 22, participation is of course free of charge and additional information and tools will be shared with participants on June 23. Please share this communication with the appropriate team members of your company/association.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is becoming an integral part of doing business. However, many times, the information and outcomes of the programs stay internal within the participating entities, missing out on the opportunity to drive inspiration to others.

The concept of a CSR Awareness Week was initiated by the Swedish Chamber of Commerce in Hungary and our Chamber is happy to join and motivate our members to participate. During June 27- July 3, we are encouraging everyone involved in CSR activities in Hungary to join the positive communication flow and use their regular communication channels to raise awareness, visibility and communicate the value of their CSR activities under one joint umbrella logotype and hashtag (see below).

This activity is open to all linked to all companies, associations, business clubs, embassies, chambers and of course the entire NGO sector.

Preparatory steps:

• Register your company/organization via the link here by latest June 22. Participation is free of charge.
  
• Forward this communication to the right team members within your entity and start developing your own plan and collaterals and visual elements. We have enclosed the joint logotype (attached) and hashtag #csrawarenessweek2022 to be used in all communications related to this program

Action plan:

• By the latest 23 June, registered participants will receive additional information about the program and participants, which can be leveraged in the final preparations for the week. This will include a joint introduction text which can be used at the start of the week to have an aligned message platform.

• 27 June, Monday: Start the communication by sharing or publishing the common text above on your communication platforms (social media, webpage, newsletter, etc.)
• Selected umbrella participants will be asked to share a joint press release to their press contacts. The Swedish Chamber of Commerce will coordinate this
• 28 June – 3 July: all participants to share their own CSR stories, activities, etc. on their communications platforms with the common #csrawarenessweek2022 and logo
• Week of 4 July: summary of the results

The summary of the week and last year’s results can be found here.

Please do not hesitate to contact the Swedish Chamber of Commerce in Hungary (swedishchamber@swedishchamber.hu) in case you have any questions.

June 28 – July 4

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is becoming an integral part of doing business and can often be a competitive advantage. However, we have learned during our CSR event in April and also through a study ordered by the Embassy of Sweden, that external communication of the value and results of these type of cooperation and activities can be challenging for many actors.

During June 28- July 4, we are encouraging everyone involved in CSR activities in Hungary to join the positive communication flow and use their regular communication channels to raise awareness, visibility and communicate the value of their CSR activities under one joint umbrella logotype and hashtag.

This activity is open to all linked to all companies, associations, business clubs, embassies, chambers and of course the entire NGO sector.

The concept is really simple: share your own CSR stories, activities, etc. on your communications platforms during the week June 28-July 4 by using the common logo and #csrawarenessweek2021.
