Abstract
In 2004 the Dutch Ministery of Economic Affairs inaugurated ‘MVO Nederland’, an independent knowledge center and clearing house that initiates and supports corporate social responsibility policies especially on the level of small and medium size enterprises. The center now has over 500 businesses and organisations as partners, and a staff of about 15 people. The paper reports facts and figures, means and methods developed in the initial years, and reflects on experiences gathered and on topics discussed in current literature. Attention is raised particularly to the quality of the motivation to engage in corporate social responsibility, and to the ‘institutional approach’ that proves fruitful in fostering corporate social responsibility in small and medium size enterprises.
