Corporate Social Responsibility - Setting up a successful China strategy

 


Following on from the recent CSR survey of member companies, AustCham Shanghai is proud to launch the first of a series of CSR events addressing the needs expressed by survey respondents.

CSR is an area that is an increasingly important part of doing business in China and AustCham Shanghai welcomes Clinton Dines and Richard Brubaker to share their experiences and insights in setting up CSR programs in China.

Clinton is the retired senior country executive in China for BHP Billiton and oversaw their comprehensive "Every Step Counts" Community and Sustainability Programs. Through their CSR program BHP established partnerships with some of China's most prestigious universities, research institutions, environmental groups and non-government organisations as well as customers to share their knowledge and expertise.

Richard is the Managing Director of Collective Responsibility and as a visiting Professor of Sustainability at the China Europe International Business School. Richard brings together like minded individuals and members of China's CSR community with a focus on creating a knowledge base and the development of civil society and CSR in China.

Join AustCham Shanghai, Clinton and Richard to learn more about CSR programs in China on Thursday March 18th. For more information on this event click here.
