The Engaged: a Guide to Corporate Social Responsibility

The Engaged: a Guide to Corporate Social Responsibility

In 2024, the Giving Tuesday team conducted 60 interviews with businesses, the public sector, and creative communities to systematize and preserve engagement practices. They contributed to the country’s resilience at the beginning of the full-scale invasion and are now helping it overcome new challenges.

We talked to CEOs, marketers, SCR leaders and communicators of large and small businesses, authors of initiatives, founders of foundations, creatives, and owners of advertising agencies. You can read some of the materials based on these conversations in the Blog of Engagement.

So you can see all the achievements in the Corporate Social Responsibility Guide.

“Ukrainian business has learned to be flexible and resourceful during two revolutions and a pandemic, but with the onset of a full-scale invasion, it had to accept an existential challenge. Many of the business people we spoke to for this guide have lent a shoulder to the state and built parallel institutions. This experience of caring is unprecedented and in the opinion of some, exportable.” – Iryna Uhnivenko, author of the Guide, creative strategist at Zagoriy Foundation.
