Kviv, 19
September, 2007 The launch of the first edition of
Responsible Business Directory Ukraine was conducted today in Kyiv at the
conference hall of the Hyatt Hotel within the frameforke of the Global Compact
Initiative in Ukraine, and in partnership with the Ukrainian Chamber of
Commerce and Industry, European Business Association, American Chamber of
Commerce and with the support of Ukraine Citizen Action Network (UCAN). During
the launch the first bilingual publication in Ukraine featuring socially
responsible companies that work in the local market and implement corporate
social responsibility practices in the
country was presented.
The
publication aims to contribute to the promotion of a new image of national
businesses that meet social, environmetal and governance objectives. The event attracted
more than 120 participants including representatives of the country's leading
companies, featured in the Directory, foreign diplomatic corps and media.
The
Responsible Business Directory incorporates CSR company profiles into one
source of information. The Directory will be also contributing to the
establishment of a new business community in Ukraine that justifies its
existence not only in terms of profit, but also service to the society at large
which becomes a tribute to the international business practice tendencies. This
publication is a wonderful resource of information for a wide audience and will
be distributed within the country and also abroad.
