Issue 7: CSR in India and Bangladesh

{cf_magazine_editors_name}'s photo

As part of the ‘BRIC’ group of emerging economies, India has experienced substantial economic growth and development in the last few decades, with its domestic firms gaining increasing dominance in global markets and economies. Along with its neighbour, Bangladesh, these two countries represent a significant proportion of the world’s population, with a large number living below the poverty line. Together they present a diverse range of challenges across the full environmental, economic and social spectrums of corporate social responsibility (CSR). This part of South Asia therefore presents an ideal focus for this, our seventh issue of the magazine.

Michael Wareing’s account of the ‘Seeing is Believing’ trip to Bangalore, where business leaders experienced life at first hand, demonstrates the real benefits companies can provide through their CSR policies and activities.
