Our corporate social responsibility

Because CSR counts

To do more for our planet and for others, our team includes Accountancy Europe’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) in all choices we make.

Our CSR objectives

This is an organisation-wide initiative which aims at being responsible towards the environment, society and our stakeholders.

Sustainable office

We started by making our offices and our events more sustainable. This includes:

  • print less
  • switch to reusable bottles
  • hire sustainable suppliers
  • decrease food waste
  • encourage local, vegetarian and organic products for catering
  • select green venues for events

Our commitment does not end here as we have also applied for the Label Entreprise Écodynamique, which rewards and encourages companies, associations, and institutions in Brussels that actively work to reduce their environmental impact. This is an official recognition that comes at no cost.
