What is a partnership?
A partnership is a collaborative and co-ordinated relationship of equals between several organisations that aim to achieve common goals by leveraging their complementary skills and approaches. A strategic partnership must meet the objectives and needs of both organisations.
Why participate as an association?
- To mobilise new resources or skills needed to carry out a project;
- Extend the reach of your message across the company and interact with its ecosystem;
- Strengthen your local roots and develop a network of volunteers.
Why participate as a company?
- To concretely implement an aspect of its CSR strategy and develop more responsible practices;
- Improve internal cohesion, give employees a sense of purpose and enhance their skills;
- Raising the company's profile and visibility.
