This panel will deliver recommendations for effective approaches to impact-driven partnerships with a variety of frontline communities in global supply chains. Speakers will summarize lessons from decades of experience in engaging under-served and under-represented stakeholders around the world toward win-win sustainability-driven improvements, analyze frequently encountered challenges, and give advice on overcoming said challenges in ways that help bring lasting positive change.
Learning outcomes:
- A practical summary of best practices around forward-looking sustainability-centric partnerships with vulnerable communities in global supply chains
- Sober analysis of persistent, often intractable, systemic barriers to much-needed change, and tips on going around them or working in parallel with them
- Well-distilled evidence-based effective tactics for multi-dimensional engagement in supply chains that intervenes on multiple levels at the same time
