Towards Responsible and Sustainable Supply Chains – Innovation, Multi-stakeholder Approach and Governance

Agata Gurzawska · 2019 · Philosophy of Management

Summary. Supply chains create significant societal and environmental burdens. This paper argues that companies must implement responsibility and sustainability across supply chains through three mechanisms: research and innovation support, multi-stakeholder collaboration involving industry and government, and shared responsibility across organizations rather than individual companies. The author uses Sedex, a collaborative platform, as a case study demonstrating how technological, political, and ethical solutions with sound governance models can balance economic, environmental, and social sustainability.
