Riyadh to host global social responsibility forum

The International Social Responsibility Forum, organized by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development, is scheduled to take place in Riyadh from October 28-29, according to the Saudi Press Agency. The forum is a significant global platform for discussing social responsibility and underscores Saudi Arabia's leadership in this field, as outlined in Saudi Vision 2030.

The event aims to facilitate engagement among decision-makers from the private sector, government representatives, development organizations and experts. It will focus on addressing challenges and exploring development opportunities, encouraging innovation and contributing to shaping the global future of social responsibility.

A key aspect of the forum is promoting excellence and competition among participants and fostering partnerships between the public and private sectors and the non-profit sector. Additionally, the forum seeks to create opportunities for global collaborations.

Participants will have the chance to exchange experiences, success stories and best practices through dialogue sessions, workshops and an accompanying exhibition. The forum highlights Saudi Arabia's commitment to social responsibility and its increasing influence on the international stage as one of the world's fastest-growing economies.

Further, the event emphasizes Saudi Arabia's dedication to tackling global challenges, as reflected by its ranking of 16th globally in the Social Responsibility Index in the IMD World Competitiveness Yearbook.
