Being She CSR

CSR

CSR.... Increasingly Relevant

A variety of forces are heightening interest in CSR. In the UAE with increased affluence, ecological sustainability, globalization and the free flow of information, a lot of companies, institutions, social platforms are adopting social causes.

Being She has aligned with 4 sustainability goals of the UNGC that resonate with our aims and objectives. We are aligned and focused on working towards –

Health & Wellness - Besides the fact that women are half of the population, the conditions concerning women are becoming more and more prevalent in the entire population. So why should you care about women’s health issues? Because women’s health issues are global health issues, environmental health issues, children’s health issues, and yes—men’s health issues, too. At being she, we're ready to help lead the fight by providing a platform for women to share their stories and resources that will help them make the most informed decisions about their health.

Environment - Being She believes that women have an indispensable role to play in environmental management and development and are therefore an essential part to achieve sustainable development. The role of women in tackling and changing environmental challenges is critical in bringing about changes and encouraging the adoption of greener lifestyles and climate-friendly values for our children. Awareness and education about climate change, its causes and ways to avoid it for all age groups is among the steps we advocate.

Education – Provide through collaboration, inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all. Women are encouraged to learn more about life skills, technology, entrepreneurship, financial management and career options. Being She provides this information, tools and campaigns through the monthly She Talks and the more high-profile public event Being She Universe.

Equality – What is needed- To support gender equality and empower all women and girls. Ensure women’s full and effective participation and equal opportunities for leadership at all levels of decision making in political, economic and public life that should include the following.
