The course aims at providing tools enabling the students to elicit critical thinking on ethical, social and environmental issues raised by contemporary organizations. The specificity of the firms' impact on economic life will be addressed by analyzing the principles and practices covered by the field of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). CSR will be studied as a reflector of the modern firms' self-awareness process in terms of social responsibility and as a source of innovation in the face of today's challenges of competitiveness, sustainable development and transparent corporate governance. The theoretical references will moreover give way to more personal questioning periods developed by the students in terms of their own aspirations, perceptions and observations as citizens. All these elements foster personal change that in its turn conveys transformations within the chosen organizations.
Please make sure you choose the right CSR course. Two choices are available to you: a CSR course in Dutch (LLSMS2397) or a CSR course in English (LLSMS2905 or LLSMF2905). If you choose a course in English, your affiliation to LLSMS2905 or LLSMF2905 is SOLELY based on administrative criteria (i.e., you cannot choose yourself).
