PREVIEW
1.1 The Social Case for Embarking on a Corporate Citizenship Programme
The social case for corporate citizenship centres on the recognition that businesses are
not isolated entities but are embedded in broader societal and environmental systems.
According to the textbook Corporate Citizenship (Botha, 2016), sustainable
development is defined as ―development that meets the needs of the present without
compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.‖ This definition
highlights the necessity for corporates to consider the long-term well-being of society
and the planet when making business decisions.
Corporate citizenship programmes are essential in addressing the growing expectations
from stakeholders for businesses to operate ethically and contribute to societal well-
being. In South Africa, for instance, businesses are expected to play a proactive role in
tackling social issues such as inequality, unemployment, and environmental
degradation. Through corporate citizenship initiatives, companies can actively contribute
to the upliftment of communities, thereby building stronger social capital and trust with
stakeholders.
