About this Program
The Global Social Business Summit is the worldwide leading forum for Social Business. It serves to spread awareness about Social Business, foster discussion and collaboration between practitioners and stakeholders, as well as present and conceive best practices.
The annual event is organized by the Nobel Peace Prize laureate professor Muhammad Yunus and his creative advisor Hans Reitz, and gathers experts from the private sector, civil society, governments and academia over a few days of meetings, forums and workshops.
Sing for Hope Co-Founders Monica Yunus and Camille Zamora respond, “We firmly believe in the inclusion of the arts and culture in global convenings centering on social change, and we’ve seen the power of this first-hand. As Sing for Hope continues our international expansion, we are thrilled to partner with Grameen Creative Lab and the Global Social Business Summit to amplify our shared resonance and impact. Furthermore, we are honoured to serve on the Board of Grameen Creative Lab, and we applaud GCL for demonstrating commitment to parity and impact on the Board level, as it does every day in its programs.”
