This year’s edition of the T4SD Forum theme is to “look at corporate sustainability due diligence” and its potential to achieve transformational change.
About the Forum

This hybrid event will convene a wide range of stakeholders from the trade and development community. It includes small-business owners, high-level government officials, policymakers, and inspirational speakers.
The forum discusses corporate sustainability governance with business owners from developing countries. It explores how we can move beyond good intentions toward sustainable transformation.
Moreover, the forum identifies measures to support the implementation and promotion of a socially and environmentally sustainable transformation.
