Description

The 14th Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Sustainable Development Forum is held this year in light of the robust steps taken by the Egyptian government – to realize sustainable development in all sectors.

This falls within the framework of the Egypt Strategy 2030 which aims at rallying up efforts to all levels and merging all parties concerned from the private sector and international institutions in order to magnify opportunities of sustainable growth, while taking into consideration the social and environmental dimensions. This is meant to achieve sustainability, ensure fair distribution of development fruits and secure decent life for future generations.

Moreover, the private sector and the business community are keen on adopting strategies aiming at boosting institutional potentials and building capabilities for effective action vis-à-vis sustainability issues, thus making the Egyptian economy more resilient and attractive to responsible investments. This will help promote growth opportunities and establish new projects abiding by environmental and social standards.

This is clearly shown in growing voluntary reports issued annually by the business community to highlight their efforts in realizing environmental, social and economic sustainability in accordance with the latest frameworks governing the issuance of comprehensive sustainability reports.
