The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) refers to the ability of companies to consider and manage the impact of their activities on a social and environmental level, thus actively contributing to a sustainable development. It involves the integration of business practices that respect human rights, protect the environment, promote inclusion, gender equality, and contribute to the well-being of the communities in which they operate.

The Canton of Ticino pays particular attention to the CSR and promotes it through a series of measures aimed at supporting Ticino-based companies in the adoption of increasingly sustainable tools and business processes, as well as in reporting mechanisms that measure their impact.

In this context, CSR is an integral part of the Programma di attuazione della politica economica regionale, a key tool for promoting sustainable development in the Ticino region. Furthermore, adopting socially responsible practices is a fundamental requirement to access the support measures provided by the Legge per l'innovazione economica, which aims to support companies in their transition toward more innovative and sustainable models.

The website www.ti.ch/csr offers a range of useful information such as insights into policies, strategies, and initiatives that can guide companies in their journey toward a greater social and environmental responsibility. The portal also provides practical tools to help them monitor their impact.
