The CSR Initiative carries out three main types of activities:

Evaluating What Works – through research and faculty engagement aimed at advancing scholarship in the areas of private sector governance and accountability and the role of business as a partner in international development.

Developing Leaders – through active student engagement, education, and experiential learning aimed at inspiring and developing the next generation of leaders.

Supporting Policy and Practice – through outreach to external audiences in the public, private, academic, and civil society sectors aimed at making a contribution to and having an impact on the decision-making of practitioners.
