Corporate Social Responsibility at RIU Hotels A Social Innovation model

CSR action areas: destinations

Guidelines

Children & local community

Biodiversity

In 2019, RIU Hotels created a newmethodology for selecting the social projects to carry out in each destination, based on objective and scientific criteria and with two clear objectives: people and biodiversity. This social innovation process is the first of its kind in the hotel industry. In addition to being more effective and efficient, it also links investment to the volume of business in each destination, thus applying criteria of proportionality.

Programmes

• Health, services and emergencies. • Development, culture, community support, education and sport.

• Reforestation and reduction of CO 2 • Protection of wildlife

In order to achieve a more responsible hotel model, RIU has also implemented its 12 CSR commitments across the entire organisation, both in corporate offices and hotels.
