ACCSR’s mission is to help business build performance through social responsibility. Our annual conference is our cornerstone public program, providing information on latest global trends on sustainable development, policy thought leadership, and unique profiling, advocacy and networking opportunities in support of this goal. Attended by over 200 leaders from Australian business, government, the social sector and academia, ACCSR’s annual conference has rapidly become recognised as the leading event that kicks off the annual calendar of social responsibility events in Australia. In 2010 we will be putting the spotlight on the forthcoming ISO 26000 Guidance on Social Responsibility. With the theme “Meeting the Standard? The Post-GFC World of Responsible Business Practice”, this high level event will explore international and national assessments of the potential implications of the new standard for Australian organisations.
