Dubai Chamber of Commerce Launches Month-Long Sustainability Initiative
The Dubai Chamber of Commerce has launched Sustainability 365, a month-long initiative running from October 6 to 30, aimed at reinforcing sustainability and responsible business practices across the private sector.
The initiative, led by the chamber’s Centre for Responsible Business, marks an evolution from the chamber’s annual Sustainability Week, first introduced in 2015. The rebranded programme extends the original initiative’s impact, emphasizing the integration of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles into year-round business operations.
Under the theme “Purpose in Action: Empowering Communities Through Responsible Business,” the initiative includes a series of events, forums, and training sessions. These are designed to equip businesses with tools and strategies to adopt more sustainable practices and drive long-term community impact.
Maha Al Gargawi, Vice President of Business Advocacy at Dubai Chambers, stated that the initiative reflects the organization’s belief that “social responsibility is an integral part of business culture and a driver of positive change.”
The agenda features The Purpose Forum, bringing together CEOs and senior leaders to discuss the role of purpose in business, and the Business with Purpose Roundtable, which includes interactive simulations on purpose-driven strategies. The Global Sustainability and CSR Forum 2025 will convene international experts to explore trends in corporate social responsibility. Throughout the month, the Purpose Academy will host virtual learning sessions for businesses.
Over the past decade, the chamber’s sustainability programmes have engaged more than 720 companies, focusing on issues such as workplace diversity, stakeholder engagement, and the ethical application of technology. The chamber aims to build on this foundation by encouraging broader adoption of ESG frameworks to strengthen corporate competitiveness and community impact.
