Topic of the day: Bayer CSR event in Beijing

With the government stressing the need for sustainable development, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become a big buzz word in China. Many multinational copmanies operating in China are creating various CSR programs, aimed at improving China's environmental or social conditions.

Bayer, the world famous pharmacutical company, recently held one of its own CSR events in China. On October 21, 2006, Bayer China held its First Handicapped and Orphan Art Exhibition. The event, which took place in Beijing's Haidian district, not only exhibited art work created by developmentally handicapped children, but also invited children to express their creativity, on site.
