About the Event

India’s journey with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has been a unique saga of transformation over the past decade. CSR has become an integral aspect of corporate operations, emphasizing voluntary actions that improve social and environmental well-being.

Despite its advantages, organizations face challenges such as navigating regulations, addressing diverse social issues, securing funding, fostering employee engagement, and ensuring transparency. Balancing profit with social responsibility remains complex, especially in high-stakes industries.

To mitigate these challenges, companies must adopt proactive strategies that prioritize stakeholder engagement, collaboration with local communities, and integration of CSR into corporate governance. Ethical leadership and employee empowerment play a crucial role in driving meaningful change.

At this conference, hear from CSR leaders across India as they share experiences, challenges, and best practices—aiming to inspire actionable solutions and enhance CSR impact.
