No More Sustainability Strategies by former GRI Senior Trainer Enrique Torres

Dear CSR Meetup AMS Members,

It will be nice to see you again at our next event - this time with Enrique Torres. Enrique Torres established and headed the GRI Certified Training Program that is offered by around 70 GRI Training Partner organizations in over 65 countries worldwide. Check out an interview by Michael with Enrique recently in Nairobi (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Al9hPXSp8wE).

Our event will explore how to get companies to stop talking only about their "sustainability strategy" and move them from what they are doing to integrate sustainability into their overall strategy and business model. Enrique will present the concepts behind Integrated Thinking and Reporting with company examples. You will hear what sustainability means for the business and what impact the relationships with business stakeholders have on the value creation story.

Enrique has worked in training and management positions for private, governmental and non-governmental organizations such as the Ministry of Education in Australia, the Mozambique Ministry of Education, Oxfam, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) over the last 20 years.

Enrique's talk will be followed by a moderated discussion and networking opportunity. Payment is €10 if paid beforehand via Paypal, or €12 at the door. The payment includes also one drink. You can purchase your ticket Here (http://www.csrfi.com/csr-and-sustainability-meetup-amsterdam). Please RSVP as usually as well. Apologies for new payment, but Meetup has just announced heftier charges for large groups such as ours..we shall introduce our own new software in September.

We will be at MeetBerlage, our partner for the location. The location is right close to Amsterdam Central Station!
