Recent protests and violence have highlighted the need for local businesses to actively engage in their communities to foster inclusivity and counter divisive forces.

Businesses big and small immediately stepped up in the aftermath of damage to rebuild and reconnect.

What did your company do to help? What else could be done? Most importantly, how do we better collaborate to play to each other's business strengths?

Our latest event aims to educate and support local businesses in becoming proactive partners in building stronger, more resilient and hope-filled communities. This event connects to Global Goals Week as we explore the local relationship with SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) and SDG 16 (Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions).

By engaging and better understanding your communities, local businesses can make a positive social impact and reap the benefits of increased customer loyalty and brand recognition.

Join Bruntwood, 2030hub, for a panel discussion with Bethany Adam (Head of Purpose and Impact at Bruntwood) and Gill Watkins (Co-Founder of An Hour For Others).

2030hub will then lead a workshop using the Sustainable Development Goals (also called the Global Goals) to explore how your business can be a force for good in your communities. We will help you understand all the types of 'assets' you have - beyond traditional financial / product donations and employee time / pro bono. Are you aware of any 'good' responses by companies after the recent violence? Please let us know so we can share them as real-world examples of how to do it! and workshop using the Sustainable Development Goals (also called the Global Goals) to explore how your business can be a force for good in your communities.
