PLENARY SESSION 3 – REVOLUTIONIZE We live in exciting times. Today, the business of social change has become more demanding. There is the quest for a sustainable future. The CSR community is challenged more to make further meaningful, systematic contributions to address social issues that hound us from climate change, access to quality education, appropriate science and technology to social inclusion. Corporations need to partner and collaborate with civil society organizations, governments, and supply chain managers and even with their own competitors, to ensure that their CSR keeps pace with the existing and emerging needs. How do we revolutionize the way we are thinking so that we can make sure that we collaborate, sustain, and we move forward toward collective action?
