- Abstract
This paper aims to identify the implementation and the awareness degree of Social Responsibility concept among sixty companies from six European countries: Belgium, Finland, Lithuania, Netherland, Spain and Romania. We studied too the main CSR actions implemented by the researched companies, the most familiar information sources used by the managers regarding CSR and the most efficient ways of improving CSR knowledge. We also tried to find out how universities are involved or could contribute to an efficient dissemination of CSR principles using lectures, work-shops, debates, seminars among students, business community. The research is helpful to academic and university community in curricula design and in order to find out the way in which it can contribute to a better information, awareness and involvement of students and managers in the field of social responsibility. The originality of this paper relies in the fact that we made a comparative study among sixty companies and we tried to identify similarities and differences in the way in which they apply social responsibility principles in their business. We also studied university implication in CSR promotion into researched countries.
