Diversity On Board (DOB) will be the first regional platform that selectively curates high achieving Arab women to help organizations in the MENA region identify and appoint them to board and advisory board positions. In a later phase, the platform will also include high-achieving Arab Millennials, differently-abled, and other under-represented groups. This highly curated list can simultaneously be used by event organizers to identify under represented experts as keynote speakers and panelists for conferences. As part of on-going activities, DOB will provide training for organizations, such as getting the most out of your board, the business case for diversity and inclusion, diversity and inclusion indicators and measurement. To prepare women for board positions, DOB will also provide access to events, Executive Education, workshops and seminars and other services like CV and board bio reviews and board interview support. Diversity On Board is a 3BL Associates think-do-tank initiative, with co-founding partners Obai & Hill, the Women Power Summit, and the Manama Hub of the Global Shapers Community.

The Public-Planet-Partnerships (PPP) framework is a set of tools and values that demonstrates to the Public how we can see the Planet as a partner, and allows business, public servants, changemakers, innovators, and scientists to consider new ways of working and collaborating with Natural Capital. Created by 3BL Associates and SoScience.
