Description The International Journal of Sustainable Entrepreneurship and Corporate Social Responsibility (IJSECSR) is a peer-reviewed publication dedicated to social entrepreneurship. It is a multi-disciplinary, multi-functional, and multi-contextual scholarly forum for exchanging the latest research on all aspects of sustainable entrepreneurship. Social entrepreneurship is an emerging field of research that concerns how enterprising individuals or groups develop businesses that offer solutions to various social and environmental problems. Research in this domain aims to incorporate entrepreneurial insights about opportunity recognition and exploitation into sustainable development in order to help scholars, practitioners, and policymakers gain a deeper and broader understanding of how a new business mindset can be developed and used in managing an effective and smooth transition toward more sustainable societies where new and established businesses preserve and protect communities, nature, and the environment while contributing to economic growth by creating offerings with environmental and social value.

It aspires to deepen and enrich understanding of sustainable entrepreneurship as a complex yet unexplored phenomenon. Therefore, it aims to publish articles that help understand how, why, when, under what circumstances, and by whom sustainable businesses emerge, thrive, or fail. The vision is to become a key outlet for interesting and insightful ideas about myriad forms and dimensions of sustainable entrepreneurship. Subsequently, it welcomes case studies, quantitative and qualitative research, commentaries, book reviews, and conceptual submissions, so long as they offer original and new insights into this growing domain of inquiry to help researchers, students and educators, practitioners, and policymakers understand social entrepreneurship in the context of corporate social responsibility.
