3. Philanthropy Club: The launch of a philanthropy club in secondary schools, nurturing the spirit of philanthropy among younger generations.
4. CSR Prize for Sustainability Reporting: A monetary award for the Nigerian journalist who produces the most compelling investigative article on sustainability and corporate responsibility.
5. CSR Reporters’ SISA: The week-long celebration will culminate in the annual SISA ceremony, where deserving organizations and individuals will be recognized at an awards dinner.
Eche Munonye, the publisher and chairman of CSR Reporters, affirmed in a statement that the upcoming event and the publication’s commitment to community enrichment are unparalleled.
“We believe it is our responsibility to practice what we preach, this time around. CSR Reporters is giving back to the society that has supported us these past five years,” said Munonye. “Through the various activities planned, we hope to foster a culture of responsibility, transparency, and collaboration that will benefit not only organizations and individuals but the entire Nigerian community.”
