Beyond CSR? Business, Poverty and Social Justice

Venue: National Liberal Club, Central London...Since the 1990s, international organizations...as well as national development agencies...have embraced Corporate Social Responsibility in the hope that the private sector can play a key role in achieving developmental goals including poverty alleviation, education and health improvements. Yet we still lack a clear understanding of the specific conditions under which CSR initiatives may realise this potential. This conference aims to address this gap... Confirmed keynote speakers include Mary Robinson, Clare Short MP and John Redwood MP.
