        National CSR Fund launches MAJRA Impact Stream, digital gateway for
        sustainable impact



         Thursday, 12th December, 2024


        Strengthening community responsibility as well as environmental and social governance is part of our
        national priority


        The National CSR Fund – MAJRA unveiled the MAJRA Impact Stream, an innovative digital gateway.
        The  MAJRA  Impact  Stream  aims  to  direct  the  private  sector  contributions  towards  implementing
        innovative  CSR  initiatives  aligned  with  Environmental,  Social,  and  Governance  (ESG)  metrics  and

        national priorities.


        The  announcement  was  made  during  a  press  conference,  which  also  marked  the  launch  of  the
        MAJRA Sustainable Impact platform, offering an array of services to support and guide the efforts and
        contributions of the private sector towards impactful CSR initiatives.


        The conference saw the announcement of partnerships between MAJRA and Dubai University, Umm

        Al Quwain University, and MBRSG, with the aim of providing a diverse range of knowledge content to
        enrich the Knowledge Square platform, including studies, articles, training programs, and specialised
        workshops.  This  initiative  allows  training  hours  to  be  calculated  as  part  of  the  private  sector
        employees' development credits, thereby contributing to CSR practices and their sustainable impact.


        In his speech, H.E. Abdullah Al Saleh, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Economy and Vice Chairman

        of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  MAJRA,  said:  “The  launch  of  MAJRA  Impact  Stream  marks  a  pivotal
        moment  in  the  journey  and  dedication  to  fostering  CSR  principles  and  ESG  practices,  which  are
        integral  to  our  identity  and  heritage.  This  initiative  empowers  businesses  to  embrace  innovative

        solutions and contribute meaningfully to our society, environment, and economy by prioritising CSR,
        ESG  principles,  and  sustainability.  We  look  forward  to  deepening  our  collaboration  with  the  private
        sector unlocking new opportunities and fostering a positive, lasting impact.”


        Sarah Shaw, Director of MAJRA - The National CSR Fund, said: “With the launch of MAJRA Impact
        Stream, our goal is to enhance transparency, accountability and trust across sectors in their CSR and

        ESG  activities.  This  will  help  unify  efforts  and  amplify  the  impact  of  these  initiatives.  Additionally,
        through  the  MAJRA  Community,  we  seek  to  create  a  collaborative  space  where  individuals  and
        organisations can share experiences, knowledge, and innovative ideas to elevate positive change.”
