[SPN-Discussion] Dow Jones Sustainability Index Webinar 3/23 and 3/26

[Matthew Balestrieri]

*Dow Jones Sustainability Index: The path to corporate responsibility
recognition and improved internal management*

**Companies are increasingly looking to promote their corporate
responsibility activities.  External validation is an important avenue for
helping consumers, customers, and other stakeholders understand the
robustness of your company’s citizenship program.  Dow Jones created its
Sustainability Index to recognize publicly traded companies with outstanding
economic, environmental, and social performance. Inclusion on this list has
now become one of the most respected signs of effective corporate
responsibility programs and sustainability-related risk management.
Corporate Citizenship is offering a free webinar about DJSI, including the
benefits of applying, the application process, and insight into what it
takes to be selected for inclusion.

Corporate Citizenship’s Peter Hughes, Director, and Megan DeYoung, Director,
US Operations, will leverage their experience advising companies, including
Super Sector leaders, on their citizenship activities and Dow Jones
Sustainability Index applications.

The webinar will provide insight to companies that have never applied before
as well as to those that are already listed.  During the webinar, several
critical questions will be answered:

   - Why is the DJSI important for investors?
   - What do I need to know about their assessment process?
   - What are the internal and external benefits to the application process
   and selection?
   - If my company has never applied before, when is the right time to
   start?
   - What kind of documentation and references are most effective for
   backing up my submission?

 This free webinar will be offered twice:
