Faculty Fulbright - Mumbai, India
Nadine Deo
As a Fulbright Scholar, Deo will travel to Mumbai, India, to share the findings from her research on the aftermath of the 2013 revisions to the Company Act, which created a new arena of corporate social responsibility. The Indian parliament required large corporationsĀ to donate at least 2% of their annual profits towards social causes and strongly encouraged them to partner with non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The result has been a huge influx of corporate funding and influence into the social inclusion and sustainable development sphere.
