Corporate Social Responsibility
What we do to become socially accountable to us, business partners, environment, stakeholders, and the community.
At the Global Leadership Hub, we contribute to making the world a better place through a number of steps to return the good deeds to society.

Climate change is one of the defining challenges of our age. Working with our climate partner Climate Society, Global Leadership Hub have signed a pledge to support the UNFCCC’s Climate Neutral Now initative.
Through this, we joined the global community of organisations committing to act now in order to achieve a climate neutral world by 2050.
About Climate Neutral Now
The Climate Neutral Now Initiative is one of several initiatives launched by the UNFCCC secretariat to increase climate action by engaging non-Party stakeholders (sub-national governments, companies, organizations, individuals). It was launched in 2015 based on a mandate to promote the voluntary use of carbon market mechanisms recognized under the Convention.
It has evolved to become a much wider tool for awareness-raising, capacity building, partnership development, promoting and facilitating the estimation of carbon footprints, the reduction of those footprints, and voluntary compensation (offsetting).
The Climate Neutral Now Initiative encourages and supports organizations and other interested stakeholders to act now in order to achieve a climate neutral world by 2050 as enshrined in the Paris Agreement. The initiative is NOT a certification scheme for its participants. It is a tool to promote additional voluntary action on climate, and to provide recognition for it. Claims of carbon neutrality, net zero or similar are out of the scope of Climate Neutral Now, even when participation in the initiative can help stakeholders advance in their path to achieve those certifications through suitable standards and processes.
An organization can become a participant by signing the Climate Neutral Now Pledge, following the three steps (Measure, Reduce, Contribute) and reporting on its actions and achievements annually.

Measuring. We have signed the United Nations Climate Neutral Now pledge and measure our carbon emissions annually (click on the image to access the latest report).
Taking action. We constructed an action plan to reduce our overall emissions with the goal of eliminating them eventually. Our focus now is on reducing our carbon footprint where possible.
Offsetting our emissions. As a first step in our climate action plan, we are offsetting our emissions through a variety of certified project, i.e. planting trees to remove CO2 from the atmosphere.
We are committed to help members of our communities develop the skills they need to thrive and to play a greater part in our economy and society.
We do this through:
