Social and cultural initiatives
During 2013 the Group continued its tradition of fostering and promoting social solidarity, human rights and the environment in order to raise awareness among readers, viewers, listeners and users. PRISA’s media have long championed campaigns in favor of human rights and development as promoted by NGOs such as UNICEF, WWF, Intermón Oxfam, Fundación de Ayuda contra la Drogadicción, Ayuda en Acción, Red Cross, Unicef, Manos Unidas, Medicos sin Fronteras, Save the Children and the UNHCR. Support is offered through habitual reporting and specific sponsorship or promotion deals.
Moreover, each of the Group companies individually collaborates on initiatives with third parties for the abovementioned purposes. Such initiatives are shared on PRISA’s Social Responsibility Observatory, a body in which all business units are represented and whose responsibility is to develop and manage a comprehensive global and cross-corporate social responsibility strategy and to channel, support and coordinate the strategy of each of the companies and business units.
