The ICCSR and Nottingham University Business are hosts for this seminar which is part of a series on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Developing Countries. The integration of CSR and SMEs into local, regional, and international supply chains is a debated topic. This seminar critically explores the requirements, contingencies and conflicts of supply chains spanning to and operating in developing/emerging countries. We examine various issues of supply chain governance and inclusive business models, and seek to understand the opportunities, trade-offs, and challenges for embracing multi-dimensional sustainability among SMEs.
The seminar will consist of three themed sessions with papers accepted for:
· Supply Chain Governance
· Inclusive Business Models
· Opportunities and Challenges of Embracing Multi-dimensional Sustainability
**There is still time to submit a paper for presentation - the closing date is Friday 20th February 2015. Papers submitted will be considered for a special issue in the Business Ethics: A European Review edited by Jedrzej George Frynas, Judy Muthuri and Stefan Gold.
Notable Speakers include:
Peter Lund-Thomsen, Associate Professor, Copenhagen Business School & Associate Editor of Business Ethics – A European Review
