AfricaGrowth.net and AICC are proud to present a new report by the International Institute for Sustainable Development. Based on some of the largest stakeholder consultation in ISO history - this project maps the materiality of the ISO 26000 Social Responsibility to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through a global survey of 59 SMEs, 37 social responsibility consultations and 16 National Cleaner Production Centres across the world. It was commissioned by the Swiss Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) to further investigate the underlying reasons why SMEs continue to be missing from the sustainable development agenda, and if and how the ISO 26000 could serve as a catalyst for their greater participation.
