ABSTRACT

                   The concept of sustainable development has been highly noticeable in the past decades and affected the global economic policy and human development plans. Countries all over the world are focusing more on the long-term viability goals to achieve sustainable and inclusive growth of their people and societies. This change is being propelled by the urgency to address the social inequalities and environmental damages caused by the excessive exploitation of natural resources by human beings. In their turn, the United Nations proposed Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), an overarching model of 17 goals, which are integrated, aimed at fostering economic, social, and environmental welfare.

Since industrial and corporate operations in major sectors like energy, manufacturing, and technology have played a significant role in economic development in the past and at the same time they have had negative effects on the environment, the essence of businesses in improving sustainability has been of paramount importance. The original idea of social contract between business and society, which was initially advanced by Frederick Goff, developed into the present-day definition of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). This model highlights the fact that companies must work beyond profit motifs, they must participate in activities that contribute to the well-being of the society and the environment. This has led to the integration of CSR and SDG as a key strategy of aligning business goals with sustainable development as a growing realization that the long-term success of a corporation is ensured through the well-being of the community
