The Impact

Internationally, the theme of territorial social responsibility, or territorial networks (CSR-oriented partnerships between local public and private partners) aimed to promote a model of sustainable economic growth, is still little noted. The movement of collective responsibility sees institutions and organisations (public and private, for profit and non-profit) participating in a form of economic development that is socially and environmentally sustainable. In these territories where deeply rooted actors are stimulated to cooperate for the responsible development of the productive system, their combined actions become an effective instrument in the sustainable government of the territory. Based on this consideration, the aim of our research is the evaluation of Italian local governmental initiatives to promote corporate social responsibility through public-private networks (specially focusing on the “Marche Region” case- study). Local governance based on the subsidiarity and the shared values of a spatial and socio-economic community can therefore be interpreted as a possible form of “managing publicly” which is focused on creating values and following the public interest, and operates through their motivations and values. This triggers a path of human governance in which participation, co-planning, and dialogue are not merely slogans but the modus operandi in actors’ processes of creating value.

The Impact

In this 20th century era, the business environment is more demanding that a business organization not only have a profit orientation. However, aspects of the impact on the environment and surrounding communities must also receive adequate attention in line with the increasing quantity and quality of business organizations. The concept of sustainable development is proposed to be a concept that tries to provide a balanced effect between financial performance factors, community welfare factors and environmental sustainability factors. In balancing the three factors above, CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) activities of business organizations are expected to be the answer to the stigma that business organizations are only looking for profit. This paper will describe several hypotheses as well as a conceptual framework of factors originating from internal business organizations that have an impact on the performance of CSR activities. There are four factors that are proposed to be a hypothesis from the internal organization that must be fulfilled so that CSR activities show their performance. The four factors are fulfilment of human resources, fulfilment of the business organization's strategic vision, fulfilment of operating system implementation, and fulfilment of the business organization's financial capability.

They turned vibrant and actively functional as local governance modules. To realize the Government of Indias mission and Modis mantra of development Make in India, corporate sectors should spend Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) money which is 2% of net profit currently on Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan. State Government should facilitate field visits by Embassy officials of those countries who issued travel advisories to their nationals against visiting states in the northeast region of India. In response to the demands of this new social system, NGOs begin to wonder what a responsible organization is like, as an exercise of assumption of its responsibilities. For the third sector, the starting point of social responsibility is the coherence between the values and the social proposal being done from their action fields: cooperation for development, social, human aid or environment.

Corporations are under increasing pressure to serve social purposes beyond maximizing shareholder value. One of the best resources for businesses seeking to affect social change meaningfully is through working with, learning from, and partnering with nonprofits. Different approaches have been emerging for nonprofits to inform and support the interests of for-profit businesses in the area of corporate social responsibility (CSR). In particular, collective impact (CI) and its implications for corporate partners; increasing positive community engagement through progressive hiring practices instituted by non-profit organizations (NPOs); fostering innovation within an organizational setting through NPO collaboration; and exploring a hybrid model of non-profit/for-profit business, with an examination of the advantages and disadvantages thereof. In this paper, we review these unique approaches to show how for-profits can learn from nonprofits and <i>vice versa </i>when it comes to social innovation and corporate social responsibility.

Social responsibility is a leading term in today's world, whether it is related to profit-making corporations or non-profit organizations. Many corporations do social responsibility in terms of corporate social responsibility, but it is in terms of university social responsibility if we talk about universities.  Universities have taken up different types of social responsibility initiatives in both developing and developed countries.  Through social responsibility initiatives, there is a need to understand private and state universities' involvement in society and the environment. By imparting knowledge and empowering students, universities serve the Society; this study would observe other universities' social responsibility initiatives towards their Society and Environment. The purpose of this paper is to explore the impact of social responsibility initiatives taken up by private and state universities of Rajasthan towards Society and environment. This paper is using survey research method based on simple random sampling and studying twenty private and state universities of Rajasthan by focusing two main dimensions service to Society and service to environment. The findings of this research show that Private and State Universities are doing more social responsibility initiatives towards Society rather than environment and based on hypothesis testing, it is concluded that there is no statistically significant difference between social responsibility initiatives taken up by private and state universities of Rajasthan while on the basis of the correlation and regression results, there is a significant impact of social responsibility initiatives taken up by private and state universities of Rajasthan towards society and environment. Social Responsibility Initiatives in state universities have a more positive attitude towards Society.
