This event is part of a series on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Developing Countries. Largely missing from the policy and scholarly discussion on this important subject has been the role of small social enterprises, despite their being many parallels and blurred boundaries between social enterprises and socially responsible SMEs. Contributions are sought which seek to make this link clearly, and which draw on and are relevant to developing country contexts.
Confirmed Speakers:
Dr Iain Davies, University of Bath
Prof Fergus Lyon, Middlesex University
Dr Anica Zeyen, Royal Holloway, University of London
