In its submission as part of the consultation process in early May, CIM expressed concern over similarities between the proposed Institute and the existing Centre for Excellence in Corporate Social Responsibility (CfE). The CfE, which was launched in 2009 and for which CIM is the secretariat, is a pillar of the Canadian government’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) policy. Later in May, CIM representatives met with former Minister of International Cooperation Bev Oda to discuss initial perceptions, the mandate and operation of the Institute, and the evolution of the CfE.
