Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Sustainability

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Sustainability have been the most used terms in the business and professional arena since the last century. Surprisingly its appeal is still rising every moment. Though it’s an age-old concept for western countries, it is relatively new for the people of South Asian countries like Bangladesh. Here the majority of the people have little knowledge or no knowledge or wrong perception about CSR and Sustainability. Business in today’s globalized world can hardly be thought of without considering these two major issues. That is why organizations of any type have almost no choice but to take these agendas seriously and consider CSR & Sustainability at the core of their strategic plan. This training program is designed to meet the thrust of having a clear concept of these very important and relevant topics.
