The deadline for the 7th International CSR Communications Conference (#CSRCOM) and PhD workshop submissions has been extended to 𝟮𝟱𝘁𝗵 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰.
CSRCOM will be hosted by the University of Bath School of Management, UK 17-19th September 2024, with a PhD pre-conference workshop taking place (hybrid -16th September and in-person - 17th September).
Our keynote speakers include:
The theme of the conference is 'CSR communication for a world in crisis'. Still recovering from the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic, we are facing a harsh new reality of a rapidly warming globe, escalating social inequalities, ongoing socio-political conflict, and looming economic crises. Many organisations are stepping up to raise awareness of – and challenge – these issues under the guise of corporate social responsibility. Others may be (inadvertently) exacerbating them.
We seek to bring together new conceptual and empirical research that builds upon insight at the intersection of CSR and communication and explores the role of CSR communication in these various crises, including:
- Grand challenges and the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
- Climate change and activism in and around organisations
- Social injustice and marginalisation
- Conflict, war and political instability
- Artificial intelligence and surveillance
- Futurism and post-human interactions
- Post-truth and denial
This biennial event discusses concepts, theories, and methodological and managerial approaches to CSR and sustainability strategies, management and communication.
It provides a wonderful opportunity for academics and professionals to network, discuss, debate and exchange ideas and viewpoints on CSR challenges and opportunities.
Please see the call for papers here and further details about the conference attached and detailed here.
We look forward to seeing you in Bath!
