Today, the primary objective of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is to maximize a company's overall impact on society and stakeholders. This involves the idea of maximizing shared value among organizations, employees, customers, shareholders, and community members. An increasing number of companies are now comprehensively integrating CSR policies, practices, and programs throughout their business operations and processes. CSR is no longer seen as just an indirect expense or nice to do activity but is considered an integral part of doing business that has a huge impact on the reputation of the organization as well as its bottom-line.
Corporate and Social Responsibility in Botswana has significantly evolved and improved over the years. Many companies, both large and small, are going above and beyond to integrate CSR into their overall strategies. This commendable move has resulted in companies contributing immensely to various facets of community development and involvement. These contributions range from educational programs, skills development, ICT, innovation, sports development, community entrepreneurship, small to medium-scale enterprise development, financial literacy, diversity & inclusion, social welfare, healthcare, environmental conservation, and more. There is now a global push to embrace corporate citizenship and sustainable business practices.
Against this backdrop, CSI-concepts has introduced the concept of a CSR Conference. The conference will focus on how companies have reinvented their business strategies by incorporating CSR initiatives into their core business. It aims to showcase sustainable growth models and highlight the principles and best practices used by corporates and CSR & Sustainability professionals to innovate their existing efforts. Effective partnerships will also be emphasized, as they play a crucial role in driving CSR success.
At this event, participants will have the chance to gain insights into cutting-edge global and local CSR practices and techniques. The conference offers a distinguished platform for researchers, practitioners, and educators to share and exchange the latest innovations, trends, challenges, and solutions in the fields of Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development.
