Social Investments

Introduction

We aim to build stronger and healthier global communities through our strategic social investments. We focus on education, economic development, basic human needs, and crisis relief efforts.

Cisco invests in the following areas:


Public Benefit Investment
We team with nonprofit and non-governmental agencies to improve access to basic human needs, education, and economic opportunities in underserved communities around the world. Our programs leverage the power of the Internet and communication technologies to maximize social benefits. We also encourage and facilitate employee giving.


Socioeconomic Development Programs
Our socioeconomic development programs promote long-term growth by providing access to improved learning opportunities and encouraging economic participation. They leverage our core competencies in networking and communication technologies and are designed to be replicable, scalable, and globally sustainable.
