Abstract

This report was commissioned by the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and has been undertaken by the ESRC Centre for Business Relationships, Accountability, Sustainability and Society of Cardiff University. It aims to provide a clearer understanding of the role which corporate social responsibility (CSR) currently plays in influencing the activities of companies involved in the nanotechnologies industry in the UK, and how CSR may contribute to protecting society from any health and environmental risks which may emerge from nanotechnology applications in the future.
