As part of its launch at the United Nations last week, the Pearl Initiative, a private sector-led program in cooperation with the United Nations Office for Partnerships aimed at improving corporate governance, accountability, and smart CSR practices in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), joined the Blouin Creative Leadership Summit through the participation of Badr Jafar, Executive Director of the Crescent Petroleum Group, and co-founder of the Pearl Initiative.
This platform heralds a new era of cooperation between companies, NGOs, international organizations and governments in confronting and tackling today’s issues. Both the Pearl Initiative and the Blouin Creative Leadership Summit aim to address the opportunities and challenges of globalization and to contribute positively to the UN’s Millennium Development Goals.
During the Blouin Creative Leadership Summit, Mr. Jafar said, “This summit has been an excellent opportunity to bring together some of the world’s most creative thinkers, from the private and public sectors including heads of state from over ten countries and from different industries across the globe.”
