Green and Sustainable Cities Initiative

CSRWorks International is pleased to be a partner of the newly launched Green and Sustainable Cities Initiative. Launched in Singapore on 4 September 2015, the initiative aims to get businesses, youth organisations and civil society committed to “a proactive, ground-up, ecosystem and entrepreneurial approach” to help make urban areas around the world more environmentally and economically sustainable.

CSRWorks and 14 other community and industry group leaders, representing more than 5000 local, regional and international organisations, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreeing to engage “in diverse activities to facilitate the growth of Green and Sustainable Cities”, with two main purposes by developing a shared-value economy and to develop youth leaders in close academia-industry collaboration. The long-term goal is to promote the notion that “doing good well is also good for business”.
