The 12th Sustainability Committee Meeting will focus on Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) sustainability collaboration.

PPPs have emerged as an effective approach for public and private entities to work together towards common goals. To ensure PPPs' long-term success and impact, sustainability collaboration among companies is crucial. Collaboration among companies in PPPs can yield several benefits, including shared expertise and resources, increased impact, enhanced reputation, cost savings, and improved stakeholder engagement. Effective collaboration requires ongoing communication, coordination, and joint decision-making. Companies must also prioritize monitoring and evaluating sustainability outcomes to ensure their efforts achieve the desired results. By working together, companies can contribute to achieving sustainable development goals and create a more sustainable future for all.

Esteemed speakers are Mr. Hector Brizuela, Project Lead of RISE, Philippine Transmarine Carriers, and Mr. Francis Macatulad, Executive Director of Asia Society for Social Improvement and Sustainable Transformation.

Mr. Brizuela will share the value of stakeholder-focused programs, leveraging the abilities of Filipino Global Maritime Professionals, and the need for greater support in disaster preparedness programs by local governments and private organizations.

Mr. Macatulad will discuss PPP as an effective model for economic process and social impact, case studies and success stories, ASSIST and PPP projects, and how to participate in PPP.

NordCham invites all stakeholders from the government, private sector, sustainability professionals, and anyone interested to learn about best practices and strategies for effective sustainability collaboration in PPPs. Join this in-person event at the Philippine Transmarine Carriers, 3/F Legaspi Room, First Maritime Place, Bagtikan St., Makati, on 31 May 2023 (Wednesday) from 3:30 - 6:00 PM.
