CSR Lebanon Forum

The 8th CSR LEBANON FORUM

When the UN adopted the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs, or Global Goals), they laid out a wide-ranging global agenda for sustainable growth through to 2030. While the Goals are intended to engage the private sector, many companies are still figuring out how they should engage with the SDGs. The global goals looked challenging enough in the past years and despite political shifts, tightening budgets and environmental manmade disasters, there is a wide agreement that achieving the SDGs will require nothing less than a transformative approach. 

The 8th CSR LEBANON FORUM will focus on how together, we can make progress on the goals despite the financial constraints; build the business case to engage stakeholders; and how youth – specifically millennials, have positioned themselves as being the new driving force to yield the strongest impact.
