Mumbai: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is becoming an increasingly important activity to businesses nationally and internationally. As globalization accelerates and large corporations serve as global providers, these corporations have progressively recognized the benefits of providing CSR programs at various locations.

Corporate social responsibility term is often used interchangeably for other terms such as Corporate Citizenship and is also linked to the concept of Triple Bottom Line Reporting (TBL), which is used as a framework for measuring an organization’s performance against economic, social and environmental parameters.

At present, most business leaders know that corporate social responsibility is integral to long-term business success, but many CSR programs aren't part of a coherent portfolio often they are unconnected, poorly measured, unsustainable and have little to do with the company's business.

It will enhance your ability to evaluate your current CSR approach, design and execute focused, high-impact CSR strategies that integrate CSR efforts across your organization.
