Corporate Environment and Social Responsibility (CESR)
CESR goes beyond mere mandatory compliances and engages in activities that would ensure
community development.
In the present era, linkage between industry, environment and society should be further
strengthened.
At the global arena, the performance of businesses is increasingly being measured on “triple
bottom line” approach, which appraises the performance of businesses using social,
economic (or financial) and environmental metrics.
SEARCH Foundation has been actively engaged in carrying out various social development
and environmental activities and is now evolving Nodal Centres on Environment and Social
Management as a part of CESR initiative, under the concept of “Janma Bhoomi - Karma
Bhoomi”.
