CSR

Bank Rakyat became the first local organisation to partner under the United Nations in Malaysia’s ‘Together for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)’ programme.

The recognition was announced during the launch of the Bank’s partnership with UN in Malaysia, as an effort to combat the nutritional deficiency issue among students through the Bank’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative, Nuri Nutrisi.

The TOGETHER for SDGs Hub is designed on the principles of ‘crowdsourcing’ and responds to the need for effective resource mobilisation by matching financial and non-financial contributors in developing initiatives to address SDG-related gaps in areas of Leaving No One Behind, Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment and Environmental Sustainability.
