Findings

Unilever, which has been operating in Indonesia since 1933, has set itself three huge goals to achieve by 2020: halve the environmental footprint of its products; help more than a billion people to take action to improve their health and wellbeing; and source 100 percent of its agricultural raw materials in a sustainable way. Many companies in Indonesia have implemented various corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs, whether they are related to the business or not. The questions that arise are: “What differentiates community development, charity, and philanthropy from a CSR program?” and “Which of these can support company sustainability?”
