Taking Responsibility

The theme of this one day conference, hosted by ISM-Open, reflects current calls from government and policy makers for communities and organisations to take responsibility for responding to global social and economic challenges. The event builds on our previous ISM-Open conference 'Changing Times: New Challenges'. What role can social marketing and socially responsible management play in moving towards a more sustainable and socially equitable economy?

The conference aims to bring together academic, practitioner and public policy researchers from these key areas of management research to present and discuss current research relevant to these issues.
