In May 2008, ASAE and The Center held a landmark Global Summit for Social Responsibility: Leveraging the Power of Associations for a New Magnitude of Leadership that united more than 800 people from around the world for three days of robust exploration of the role that associations and nonprofits can play in both creating a better world and using social responsibility to build healthier, successful organizations.

The result? An astonishing range of working groups, new alliances, dozens of personal and organizational pledges, and get-it-done momentum and creativity.

We are fully committed to moving forward the projects launched at the Global Summit on Social Responsibility. In August 2008, the ASAE and Center Boards will be reviewing and determining next steps on this initiative based on the outcomes of the summit and the opportunities subsequently created.
