Slowed growth, dwindling resources, environmental and climate challenges as well as increasing social inequalities are challenging corporations to get involved to do more good for the communities they operate in. It is a common cause; losses of community resilience undermine prosperity and threaten continuity for the whole business community. Resilient, prosperous communities mean paying customers.

At a time when confidence in corporations is low, this is an ideal opportunity to respond to people’s real needs, redefine your business mission, create new relationships or whole new product lines.

For this webinar, Copenhagen-based Humanitarian Water and Food Award (WAF) is partnering with IBUY WE SELL, a leading provider of web-based commercial platforms.

THIS SEMINAR IS FOR
Leaders in private and public organizations who are interested in learning about latest developments in CSR thinking and how this can be applied in smart phone apps and web-based buying and selling communities to build reputation and help social causes in way that makes good business sense.
