The Sandpiper Group (“Sandpiper”), the largest independent communications, public affairs and research group headquartered in Asia Pacific, has announced the expansion of its pro-bono ‘Voice Your Vision’ communications training to encompass both non-profit and corporate leaders globally.
In 2023, the Voice Your Vision workshops garnered participation from over 100 lead representatives of global and local non-governmental and not-for-profit organisations across six key markets in the Asia Pacific region.
In the coming year, as well as offering pro-bono communications training to help non-profit leaders to engage stakeholders with their cause, separate sessions will take place for corporate leaders on sharing their corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability stories.
The sessions will take place virtually to enable participation from leaders both within the Asia Pacific region, and globally.
Voice Your Vision is operating at a time when many NGOs and other NFPs are being negatively impacted by heightened demand amidst reduced funding and the growing complexities of the media landscape. Private sector businesses across all industries are also trying to navigate how they communicate about their CSR and sustainability efforts and initiatives in a responsible and meaningful way.
The training programmes will be facilitated by experts from Sandpiper’s specialised International Media and ESG and Sustainability Communications teams.
Emma Smith, CEO, Sandpiper, said: “We are proud to be opening Voice Your Vision to non-profit, NGO and corporate leaders around the world. Solving the challenges facing our world today requires participation and advocacy from public, private, and non-profit and NGO stakeholders across every continent in equal measure, and the evolution of Voice Your Vision in aims to address this. We look forward to working with leaders to help them with engaging their audiences on the issues that matter to them and create meaningful impact.”
