Abstract
As already formulated in the Agenda 21 in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, the development of an inclusive municipality demands joined actions between citizens, social organizations, politicians, public administration and enterprises. This paper describes the experience of the municipal administration of Rottenburg am Neckar, Germany, to promote Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). After a short presentation of the debate on CSR it shows how it is possible to create a win-win situation with business-social partnerships. The article illustrates how public administration can and should play an active role in creating, managing and coordinating CSR projects and makes suggestions on how to implement such projects at the local level in Brazil or elsewhere. The success of such a venture relies, among others, on a professional project management with both financial and political support, and a strong and participating civil society.Keywords: Corporate Social Responsibility, Public Administration, Civil Society, Social Projects, Management Resumo Como já estabelecido na Agenda 21 da conferência Eco-92, no Rio de Janeiro, a criação de municípios inclusivos requer ações conjuntas e coordenadas entre cidadãos, organizações sociais, políticos, Administração Pública e empresas. Este artigo apresenta a experiência da Administração Pública da cidade de Rottenburg am Neckar, na Alemanha, em promover a Responsabilidade Social Empresarial (RSE). Após uma breve introdução sobre o debate em torno da RSE, demonstra-se como é possível criar uma situação favorável para ambas as partes com parcerias empresariais-sociais. O artigo mostra como a Administração Pública pode e deve ter um papel ativo em criar, administrar e coordenar projetos de RSE. Ao longo do texto, apresentam-se sugestões de como implementar projetos dessa natureza na prática em municípios, seja no Brasil ou em outras localidades. O sucesso depende, entre outros fatores, de uma gestão profissionalizada com apoio político e financeiro, assim como de uma sociedade civil fortalecida e participativa. Palavras-chave: Responsabilidade Social Empresarial, Administração Pública, Sociedade Civil, Projetos Sociais, Gestão Pública.
