OREANDA-NEWS. December 8, 2010. Steel pipe and railway wheel company Interpipe took part in the first Ukrainian exhibition of social and ecologic projects CSR MarketPlace held on 19 November 2010 in Kiev. The aim of the exhibition was to promote the idea of corporate social responsibility among Ukrainian companies as well as to present CSR projects to the public.

During the exhibition, Interpipe presented established social and ecologic projects and for the first time presented a book on CSR “Corporate Social Responsibility: All you need to know”. The book contains information about the history and formation of CSR policy, its development and perspectives as well as world practices that only are beginning to develop in Ukraine.

The book on CSR “Corporate Social Responsibility: All you need to know” is the second book published in the framework of the project ‘Management decisions library from Interpipe’. The first book published was a book by business guru Henry Mintzberg, entitled ‘The Rise and Fall of Strategic Planning’.

Oleg Kuzmin, Director for Corporate Affairs at Interpipe said: “The book on CSR will be the first book in Ukraine with a systemized, theoretic basis describing CSR projects by leading Ukrainian companies. The next step in the promotion of the book will be its distribution to all leading Universities in Ukraine. We hope that this publication will become a handbook not only for students, but for top-managers, specialists, representatives of academic circles and state authorities as well.”
