The Chief Sustainability Officers Network
About the CSO Network
Chief Sustainability Officers will play a leading, critical role in the ongoing and upcoming green transformations that the UAE’s public and private sectors will experience. To nurture collaboration, maximize agility, and mobilize necessary resources that match the dynamic sustainability landscape in the UAE, leaders of sustainability must have a shared exclusive platform to achieve these objectives. That is where the idea of the Chief Sustainability Officer Network stemmed from.
The CSO Network is a unique UAE-based platform, enabling CSOs from multiple sectors to address and overcome challenges to sustainability in the UAE, discuss future trends and focal areas, explore pathways to engage with the wider community and develop joint initiatives to propel sustainability forward and materialize a green, diversified, and inclusive tomorrow.
