“There is no bigger religion than helping others. Social responsibility is crucial for building a trustworthy and peaceful society – be it in education, healthcare, empowerment of women and the underprivileged, rural development or any other sector. At the same time, there is a growing need to take initiatives to protect our environment, our planet. For this, individual and collective action needs to take the lead along with welfare initiatives by the government. Through the Excellence Awards, The CSR Journal has been successfully creating a platform where a diverse group of people and organisations come together to understand, learn and reflect on each other’s social sector journeys. The CSR Journal has set a benchmark in bringing to the fore environmental and social welfare initiatives by citizens, NGOs and corporates which inspire and encourage others to follow their footsteps,” shared Shri. Eknath Shinde, Hon’ble Chief Minister of Maharashtra.

“The 6th edition of The CSR Journal Excellence Awards marks an important milestone in the journey we embarked upon in 2016. This year is even more special, with The CSR Journal completing 10 years of its existence. The experience, support and cooperation of various stakeholders, partners and, most importantly, our readers have made the Excellence Awards inspire much-needed initiatives and innovative practices among corporates and citizens across India.

This year, we are proud to partner with School of Skill Education, Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai, to evaluate a record number of applications for impactful programmes in the corporate social responsibility domain for The CSR Journal Excellence Awards 2023. I extend sincere gratitude to our final round jury that has made possible the completion of the evaluation process for the awards this year.

This year, the Bombay Stock Exchange in Mumbai hosts the sixth edition of the Excellence Awards, and I extend a warm welcome to each and every one of you as our valued guests for the evening. The first-of-its-kind gathering at the BSE will continue this journey and build on our vision of creating a repository of best practices and the most transparent and rigorous mechanism for evaluation of social impact in the country,” expressed Amit Upadhyay, Founder and Editor-in-Chief, The CSR Journal.
