CSR Conclave 2025 Beyond Giving: Responsible CSR and Due Diligence

Overview

Beyond Giving: Responsible CSR and Due Diligence highlights the evolving role of corporate social responsibility from one-time charitable acts to a more strategic, accountable, and impactful approach.

In today’s business environment, responsible CSR goes beyond financial donations — it involves understanding the needs of communities, aligning with sustainable development goals, conducting thorough due diligence on implementing partners, and ensuring measurable, long-term impact.

This theme encourages organizations to embed ethics, transparency, and accountability into every stage of their CSR strategy, fostering trust and creating shared value for both society and business.
