Michael Hopkins by the Mediterranean

Michael Hopkins by the Mediterranean

Starting from a discussion on what is CSR and Sustainability all about, we shall start with a clear and useful definition to help you understand the maze of terms that are being used as well as how they link to other concepts such as those defined by ISO26000, the EU, the UN Global Compact etc. The course draws upon both the course leader’s book on CSR and International Development and his recent textbook CSR:A Text Book (Springer, Germany, 2014), as well as Dr. Hopkins’ vast experience in working with companies, Governments and the United Nations in over 120 countries around the world.

The course will cover CSR strategy and how it links to practical conditions in emerging market economies with examples taken from large companies as well as small. The course will include company representatives and experts associated with leading companies in the Mediterranean Basin. Delegates will leave the course with a clear idea of how to implement CSR and Sustainable Development in projects and programmes from community development, to employment creating programmes to their own chosen projects.

Course Methodology
This course will teach you all the available techniques and how to practically apply them through the extensive use of case studies. The course is highly interactive with delegates learning from each other as much as from the instructor. A choice of case studies will be offered and delegates can choose the ones most appropriate to their own needs and requirements – for instance working wth a case study that understands how communities can be involved to reduce risk using the experience of the BP Baku-
Tiblisi- Ceyhan pipeline or seeing how sustainable development can be promoted in
case studies of BAT in Bangladesh, South Africa and/or Sri Lanka.
