How to implement CSR
One of the new global tendencies within the fashion industry is the work with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) but for many companies it can seem difficult to figure out how to start working
with ethnical, social and environmental aspects and furthermore the question about how much it will cost appears. The work with CSR does not have to be neither difficult nor expensive to start
up.
To accommodate the doubt and possible barriers the Danish Fashion Institute in collaboration with Rambøll Management has put together a seminar which will guide the companies to start implementing CSR.
