Corporate Social Responsibility

Over recent years, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become the buzzword within companies, who now have the added pressures to ensure that they work in a responsible manner by conducting their business ethically. This means companies need to be seen taking into account their social, economic and environmental impact, when conducting their everyday business.

Sustainability is a global challenge identified by the United Nations. There is a uniform drive in every region of the world to invest time and money into developing solutions to meet this global challenge. Consequently, sustainability research is one of the fastest growing scientific fields today.
