educational events

We organize seminars, conferences, and workshops focusing on individual aspects of corporate social responsibility (CSR). The goal of these events is to increase the awareness of CSR issues, and to share best practices and information within the business community as well as with the public. Since 2004,ith the support of the Business Leaders Forum, we have organized four international conferences and 13 thematically focused educational seminars and discussion forums. We welcomed managers from more than 50 major companies and many PR representatives from advertising agencies, as well as representatives of media and nongovernmental organizations.
