With the theme of Social Responsibility: Emerging Issues and Challenges, COSRA 2018 offers a platform for scholarly and applied conversations among a wide variety of stakeholders concerned with the continual challenge of advancing the social responsibility agenda: people, planet, and growth. We believe that social responsibility has its roots in the individual and expands to business communities, impacting both local and global communities on all levels. As a result, together we must forge a path that integrates social and environmental concerns in our daily routines and business practices.
