The Barometer series offers growing insight into the ways in which the corporate-NGO partnering landscape is evolving. Each year’s findings build on previous years’ data to deepen understanding of drivers, changing practices and likely future developments in crosssector partnering and its growing impact on society.

This summary highlights the most important findings of the 2020 Barometer edition, which draws on the experience of 110 leading companies and NGOs who completed the C&E’s confidential annual survey during July. The survey was supplemented by deep-dive roundtable discussions with corporate and NGO practitioners to provide qualitative insights.
