The UN Global Compact Network Nigeria, in partnership with Sightsavers, will host a webinar themed, “Advancing corporate sustainability through disability inclusion.“
Globally, the world economy lost $6 trillion to the exclusion of persons with disabilities. Disability inclusion has often been perceived as a CSR task in several organisations, but private sector companies need to recognise the benefits their company could gain when they mainstream disability inclusion across their workforce, supply chain, and community interventions.
This webinar aims to share best practises and case studies from disability confident companies on how private sector employers can tap into the benefits of mainstreaming disability.
Date: 26 April 2023
Time: 1:00 PM (WAT).
Speakers:
Naomi E. Nwokolo, Executive Director, UN Global Compact Network Nigeria
Simon Brown, Deputy Technical Director, Economic Empowerment, Sightsavers
Panelists:
Omobolanle Victor-Laniyan, Head, Sustainability, Access Bank & Board Member, UN Global Compact Network Nigeria
Odunayo Sanya, CEO, MTN foundation
Ola Ehinmoro, Human Resources Director, West Africa, Unilever.
