Joint Institute of Sustainable Solutions, Center for Sustainability Innovation (CSI), and Economic Research Institute (ERI). The PI, noted as the Senior Advisor, will assist with the direction and conduct of the study, and will provide research and analysis on the sectors of sustainability and innovation policy, and support the development of both the micro and macro research questions that underpin the study.
The CSR departments of companies in the UK were asked in a survey to identify the greatest threats to business sustainability, and the most significant barriers to CSR programmes. The responses to these questions were then used to develop a survey instrument for use in interviews with individual board members of UK companies. The purpose of this case study was to analyse the results of the survey for UK corporations.

The nature of CSR may also be affected by the particular local and national
