BD Sustainability Alliance formed

Business Desk :
The Bangladesh Sustainability Alliance (BSA) has started its journey as a collaborative initiative of the country’s top businesses and development organisations to practise and promote the sustainable development agenda on a broader scale.

The newly formed Alliance Partners have been visionary and pioneering in getting together as the alliance. They are BRAC, Pran-RFL Group, Standard Chartered Bangladesh, Unilever Bangladesh Limited, Bangladesh Petrochemical Company Limited, Marico Bangladesh Limited, Inter-continental Hotels and PepsiCo Bangladesh. In its maiden public programme at a city hotel on Monday, BSA urged other businesses and organisations to join the collective effort for sustainability across the climate-vulnerable, fast-growing Bangladesh, said a press release on Tuesday.

The majority of the alliance partners are already doing a commendable amount of work independently on the various sustainability-related themes to address climate change, waste management and livelihood improvement, alliance members said at the event adding that their partnership with the BSA will ensure that these efforts are aligned with the country’s vision built on mutual learning and experience.
