Welcome to the launch of the Centre of Social Responsibility (CSR)’s blog and news site! Here, we will keep you up to date with our work and events, and share our members’ creative ideas. CSR acts as an internationally recognised hub for high quality research and knowledge exchange within the broad sphere of social responsibility and civic engagement. Our work is supported by an External Advisory Group and enriched by Visiting Professors and Fellows from higher education and beyond.
The CSR Blog: Many Ways of Knowing
The blog aims to:
- Provide a space for sharing ideas that meet the Centre’s aims of responding innovatively to complex societal issues, promoting equality and social justice.
- Work in line with CSR’s mission of collaboration, acknowledging that there are many ways of knowing the world.
- Showcase diverse perspectives from inside and outside the university.
We welcome contributions that are creative, collaborative and experimental, and that encourage thinking about social justice. Submissions should be up to 500 words and images are very welcome too. Please send them to [email protected].
