SUMMARY:Reflecting on the Zondo Commission of Inquiry: Lessons for the Private Sector
DESCRIPTION:The National Business Initiative’s (NBI) work on Building Trust and Accountability aims to reimagine South Africa as a society and economy built on trust. We do this by strengthening ethics and governance in the Private Sector\, enhancing the capacity for responsible business practices and accountability. In turn\, this strengthens the relationship between Business and broader society. \nThe Judicial Commission of Inquiry into Allegations of State Capture\, better known as the Zondo Commission\, was set up by former South African President\, Jacob Zuma\, to investigate allegations of state capture\, corruption\, and fraud in the public sector in South Africa. \nWhile focussing primarily on the public sector\, the findings indicated widespread corruption in both the public and private sectors in South Africa. The Zondo Commission findings “bust the abiding myths that the private sector is more ethical than the public sector and is less susceptible to corrupt practices given the many anti-corruption regulations. ’’ Find out more. \n\n\n                    \n                        \n                        \n                    \n\n        \n        Water security is no longer a future concern\, it is already affecting communities\, businesses\, cities\, economies and ecosystems. As pressure on water systems grows\, organisations need credible and practical ways to respond beyond their own operations. This is where water stewardship becomes critical     \n\n\n\n        \n        Join the National Business Initiative (NBI)\, in partnership with the Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS)\, for a thought leadership webinar exploring the newly launched AWS Standard Version 3.0 the global benchmark for credible water stewardship.     \n\n        \n                    \n                    \n\n        \n                \n        \n    \n    \n        \n        \n                        \n        \n                        \n                        \n                        \n                    \n\n        \n        Building on the NBI’s early 2025 Thought Leadership Session\, which introduced the AWS Standard and the CEO Water Mandate’s Net Positive Water Impact (NPWI) Ambition Guide\, this session will explore how the AWS Standard Version 3.0 can help organisations move from ambition to practical action\, strengthening water management and supporting lasting impact for people\, nature and economies.     \n\n        \n                        \n        \n                        \n                        \n                        \n                    \n\n        \n        Participants will gain insights into: \n\nThe revised AWS Standard Version 3.0\nHow water stewardship can support utilities\, cities\, industries and other organisations\nSouth Africa’s water security challenges\nPractical examples of collective action and implementation\n    \n\n        \n                        \n        \n                        \n                        \n                        \n                    \n\n        \n    \n                                \n\n    \n    \n                    Speakers            \n    \n\n\n\n\n        \n        \nGarth Barnes: Programme Manager: Environment & Society\, National Business Initiative (NBI)\nFaith Lawrence (PhD): Head of Strategic Partnerships & Policy Engagement\, Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS)\nTyler Farrow: Standards Manager\, Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS)\nHelen Seyler: Technical Consulting Director\, ERM\n    \n\n        \n                        \n        \n                        \n                        \n                        \n                    \n\n        \n    \n                                \n\n    \n    \n                    Event Details:            \n    \n\n\n\n\n        \n        \nDate: Thursday\, 09 July 2026\nTime: 15h00 – 16h30 (SAST)\nPlatform: Online via Zoom\n    \n\n\n\n        \n        Join us to explore how the AWS Standard 3.0 can help organisations respond to today’s water challenges and create lasting positive impact for people\, nature\, and economies.     \n\n        \n                        \n        \n                        \n                        \n                        \n                    \n\n        \n                        \n                                                Click Here to RSVP
