CSR & Ethics — NEDaaS

CSR & Ethics Philosophy

The company offering NED-as-a-Service (NEDaaS) positions Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Ethical Governance as the twin pillars of its identity.

This philosophy is built on the belief that:

  • Good governance must include compassion.

  • Ethical leadership must drive innovation.

  • Digital transformation must protect human values.

The NEDaaS model is therefore not just a business service — it’s a socially conscious governance framework that helps organisations grow responsibly while maintaining integrity, fairness, and accountability

CSR Strategy of the NEDaaS Provider

The company’s CSR strategy is structured around three concentric circles of impact:

Governance for Good

Focus : Board ethics, responsible leadership

Objectives : Promote integrity, inclusivity, and ethical decision-making in global boards

Embed ethics modules, mentoring, and audits in every NEDaaS engagement.

Digital for Humanity

Focus : Digital education & online safety

Objectives : Empower children, youth, and NGOs to use technology safely and ethically

Partnership with Maulee Foundation (Digital Safety for 500K+ children)

Harmony for Society

Focus : Equality, inclusion, interfaith harmony.

Objectives : Support initiatives that build empathy and eliminate discrimination

Harmony Over Hate campaigns & volunteering Platforms
