Promoting education, volunteerism and humanitarian aid

With our global reach and technological expertise comes a profound responsibility to contribute to the wider well-being of society. We foster positive relationships with local communities by creating positive social impact, contributing to their economies, and addressing broader environmental issues.

Our communities strategy includes the following:

  • Ensuring our education, mentoring, and partnership programs advance diversity in IT careers
  • Leveraging our global CGI for Good digital volunteering platform to support our communities and increase the impact of our pro bono and volunteer work
  • Helping communities where we live and work respond to humanitarian crises and emergencies

Fostering volunteer and pro bono activities

CGI for Good, our global volunteering digital tool, empowers our consultants and professionals, and ESG leads to propose local community groups that need support. These volunteering and fundraising opportunities can then be shared with everyone in our organization. Through this exposure, we engage with a larger variety of causes and offer individuals and teams more ways to get involved.

In 2023, CGI Partners* completed 89,837 pro bono and volunteer hours, up from 45,019 hours in 2022.
