Abstract

In recent years, civil engineering and related professionals have begun to appreciate that the best projects take into consideration from the outset the impacts that they will have on communities through the whole project lifecycle. This means, implicitly, that projects must be developed taking into consideration the principles of corporate responsibility (CR). In February 2010, the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) sponsored a workshop in London, building on a regional workshop held in the Midlands in 2009, to consider why CR is important to the ICE and its members; to ask what leadership the ICE should provide on CR; and to ask what guidance the ICE should expect on these issues from its members. This briefing reports on the seminar and its outcome.
