Abstract: The need to shift from corporate social responsibility (CSR) to territorial social responsibility (TSR) in the social solidarity economy is becoming obvious given the highly intertwined nature of activities at the territorial level. In practice, CSR is implemented through the ISO 26000 standard, but organizations in the social and medico-social sectors cannot apply it. The case study of the John Bost Foundation highlights that TSR contributes to generating five managerial levers at the territorial level: (1) the definition of strategic plans, (2) governance mobilization at the territorial level, (3) stakeholder commitment, (4) social performance and (5) ecological transformation. Global performance is now approached on a territorial scale that enables stakeholders to be brought together to address major challenges, such as ecological compliance, governance issues, recruitment and increasing the attractiveness for professions and the professional skills and financial resources to perpetuate these activities and maintain the quality of the support and care provided to beneficiaries.
