At the 12th ICSR conference, we will discuss the ways in which corporate responsibility and sustainability practices can be effectively developed and promoted, with a special emphasis on territorial approaches. Specifically, the theme of this conference aims to discuss the virtues that localisation can bring to the development of responsible and sustainable practices by the agents involved. In this sense, it will encourage debate on the best ways to overcome the barriers to the development of CSR by taking advantage of the benefits of specialised environments, and the ways in which localisation can ensure resilience.
