The European Corporate Sustainability Framework (ECSF) research project is conducted by an international research consortium (December 2001 - February 2004), that consisted out of seven consortium members.

Vanuit Nederland participeerden de Erasmusuniversiteit en KDI participeren. Project Promoter: Erasmus University Rotterdam (The Netherlands).

The European Corporate Sustainability Framework (ECSF) is a framework to support organizations in the implementation of complex issues as Corporate Sustainability, Corporate Responsibility and Corporate Change.

In order to support the implementation of these issues, ECSF developed a set of instruments that relate to the ECSF Management Model:

1) ECSF Strategic Sustainability Scan
Find out about your most adequate strategy for sustainability and responsibility, by simply answering 8 questions.

2) The Sustainability Assessment (c)
This assessment combines the features of the ECSF Strategic Sustainability Scan, The ECSF Assessment for Corporate Sustainability and Corporate Responsibility and an ECSF toolbook for managing complexity and corporate change. Also does it support benchmark and consulting features.
