Deep-Dive 1
Workshop: Towards the triple bottom line – Sharing of best CSR practices
We need a new paradigm for business wherein businesses generate economic value by tackling society’s major needs and problems such as health, education and environmental degradation as a core value proposition. This broader notion of shared value can reshape the relationship of business to society and can legitimise business as a central partner in tackling society’s problems. As some sports have grown into businesses they also carry a much larger responsibility for society. In this deep dive discussion we will assess the current reality in sports’ governance from different perspectives, reflect on what is the secret to sustainable success and what can business and politics learn from sports?
