About the Organization

Society for Education and Research Development has organised a number of international conferences in different parts of the world to create an eco-system of Sustainable Development.

Our Mission: To empower underprivileged communities by providing access to education, healthcare, skill development, and sustainable livelihoods, fostering self-reliance and creating a brighter, equitable future for all.

About the Conference  

In an era of mounting global concerns about climate change, environmental protection, and waste management, businesses are being called upon to step up as champions of social causes and ethical practices. Moving beyond profit, corporations must now prioritize responsible products and efficient services. While some nations have implemented robust CSR policies, others are still navigating this path. Despite its challenges, corporate social responsibility is increasingly being integrated into business strategies worldwide.

The CSR 2025 International Conference will delve into the transformative impact of CSR on industries, society, and the environment. By fostering dialogue around effective frameworks for sustainability, the conference aims to inspire businesses to embrace ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) principles.

This event will bring together sustainability experts, NGOs, researchers, and academicians to exchange actionable insights, research, and ideas. Attendees will gain tools to integrate sustainability into core functions, enhance reporting methods, and engage stakeholders for meaningful impact.
