Individual report (3,000 words) will provide an assessment of a sustainable development challenge, as defined in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in order to identify the existing and future collaborative policies and solutions to address it.
• This is an individual assignment (3,000 words) that will provide a brief overview of a key sustainable development challenge (such as SDG 1: no poverty, SDG2: no hunger, etc.). The report will be based on desktop research where students are required to:
• Requirement 1: identify and define within theory one sustainable development challenge and its implications for a business and find representative cases to elaborate and contextualise the challenge within a particular industry at the national and global levels;
• Requirement 2: identify all the affected parties (stakeholders) by providing a brief description of why the key stakeholder group(s) are affected, how (consequences for each stakeholder group); what their responsibilities are (types of obligations) for the particular challenge; and identify links across stakeholder groups;
• Requirement 3: present a review of the existing collaborative policies and solutions for the chosen SDG by linking with SDG 17: the development of social partnerships with stakeholders; use your moral imagination (see paper by Warhane, 2002-link on reading list) to think creatively and develop suggestions on how a company should act proactively in developing collaborative policies and solutions to address SDGs.
