ESG & CSR
In today’s business world, success is no longer limited to making profits only; It also requires a commitment to social responsibility and environmental sustainability. The ESG (Environment, Social, and Governance) and CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) track focuses on providing companies with the knowledge and tools needed to achieve a balance between financial performance and social responsibility. This track is intended for leaders and managers who want to build sustainable organizations that are in line with global standards and contribute to societal development.
