to the development of projects in the country.
Dubai, October 2024: The National CSR Fund – MAJRA, the federal arm that establishes the
framework and governance for Sustainable Impact and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in
the UAE, hosted several consultative meetings to discuss new partnerships and projects that
promote CSR in the country and explore each emirate’s needs, in line with key national
strategies. The meeting was led by directors of the chamber of commerce and industry in each
emirate with the active involvement of heads of various CSR and sustainability committees in
all seven emirates.
Commenting on this, Sarah Shaw, Director of MAJRA, said: We are keen to further strengthen
cooperation with CSR and sustainability committees in all seven emirates and develop joint
action plans during the next phase to achieve CSR goals in the country and implement the best
environmental and social standards. This will further consolidate the UAE’s leading position as
the prosperous global community, in light of the objectives of ‘We the UAE 2031.”
