The Central Bank of Bangladesh is working with all the other banks so that they can collaborate so that all the sectors can be benefited. But we needed an institution with initiatives like this that can bring all corporates under one umbrella so that the public can be benefited.

The country is trying to achieve the SDGs but we are not progressing fast enough in all the goals, I believe we all have work to do in collaboration with the SDG wing of the government.

It is great that we are able to recognize the hard work that so many organizations are doing but it is more important that we match the talent, opportunity and resources to work all over in Bangladesh.

THEME FOR CSR SUMMIT & AWARDS 2023

IN PURSUIT OF

As the nation celebrates the 52nd year of its glorious independence, Bangladesh can look back and reflect on its robust socio-economic development, that has made the world sit up and take notice of its endless potential. Throughout this impressive journey, there have been a number of benevolent organisations and iconic individuals who have partnered with the government, institutions and communities in their plight towards sustainable development.

Gearing up to achieve middle-income status and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) laid out by the United Nations, it is imperative to manifest a collaborative approach through meaningful partnerships between the government and organisations with exceptional Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives, in order to unlock our true potential. A Better Tomorrow CSR Summit/Awards celebrates some of the most remarkable and impactful CSR initiatives that encapsulate the indomitable resilience of our people, striving towards a better future.

Now, more than ever, we must adapt and realign our objectives to ensure sustainable nation-building and propel the country to newer heights – in pursuit of A Better Tomorrow.
