Sustainable CSR Strategies and Innovation
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practitioners in the Middle East CSR stratosphere are sharing one common concern: The real interpretation of CSR within the region. As a CSR professional, the responsibility is beyond just creating and executing initiatives, it entails the responsibility of the whole organisation’s sustainability and true organisational value. Despite that the CSR stratosphere in the Middle East is relatively young and developing, CSR has developed beyond just philanthropy and donations.
This conference aims to deliver the true meaning of CSR based on international and local interpretation; with perspectives from the largest corporations to governmental bodies. Join us at our Sustainable CSR Strategies and Innovation Conference on the 26th and 27th of November in Dubai, UAE that has been strategically created to support you in growing your role as a CSR senior professional.
