Judges

 

Why Become a Judge?

The CSR Challenge is an excellent opportunity to share your expertise in sustainable development with young professionals and students from diverse backgrounds. It is also an occasion to get involved in a local community event and to learn about the pressing issues that organizations face in the areas of corporate social responsibility and environmental sustainability.

 

For 10 years, the CSR Challenge has been an enriching experience for all of those who have participated. It provides an opportunity to network with a group of peers and academics working in corporate social responsibility and to meet and connect with top MBA students who are looking forward to making an impact in their upcoming careers.
