2025 Content Priorities

As a strategic resource for CSR professionals, ACCP provides access to practical insights, relevant tools, and meaningful connections that help companies identify and understand trends, improve their results, and expand their impact. In 2025, ACCP will support practitioners and companies by concentrating our content and programming on the alignment of corporate social impact to the overall business, with a focus on:

· Using AI in Corporate Social Impact: sessions and content focuses on how corporate social impact practitioners can consider using AI tools internally to better plan and assess the impact of their programs, how external partners can use it to solve societal issues and increase efficiency in their work and ethical, bias and compliance considerations when using AI.

· Expanding Corporate Social Impact Programs to Meet Globalization of Business: More and more corporate social impact teams are being asked to engage employees globally, contribute towards global reporting standards and stakeholder expectations, while meeting local needs within an overall enterprise strategy. Content will focus on challenges in these areas, compliance and cultural standards and tips and tricks for success. 

· Evolving Employee Engagement Strategies: today’s workforce is more complex than before, with employees that want to be involved in making corporate social impact decisions, are more educated on priority issue areas and work in hybrid or remote settings. Content in this area will focus on trends for today to encourage volunteer participation, offer new opportunities that are accessible and/or employee-led, and measure the impact of these programs.

· Aligning to the Business Strategy & Adapting to Change: In order to survive political, economic and social headwinds, today’s corporate social impact programs need to advance overall business goals and mitigate risk – content in this area will showcase how corporate social impact can strategically do just that.

· Measuring the Business Benefit of Social Impact: One of the most complex areas for corporate social impact professionals is impact measurement and proving how our programs contribute towards the bottom line. Content in this area will focus on how teams can showcase the impact of our work both internally and in our communities while not overburdening our nonprofit partners.
