Working predominately in Africa and witnessing first-hand the enormous disparity between ‘ local reality ’ and the reality the vast majority of us live provided Sarah the drive to set up ‘ Giving Direct Glocally ’, a non-profit for the industry that encourages the Supply Chain to address Social Responsibility with the same sense of obligation that Corporate address CSR , in line with ISO26000 and Conscious Capitalism .
