    Dear colleagues, 

    Deforestation is a serious existential threat. It contributes significantly to climate change; it pushes numerous wildlife species (think Orangutans) to extinction; and it snatches basic human rights and means of livelihood from hundreds of millions of impoverished communities around the world. What causes deforestation? Well, the matter is complex; but businesses, through their supply chains, are responsible for most of it. How can it be stopped? Again, the matter is complex; but our community of scholars can help find solutions.  

     We are co-editing a special issue of Business Strategy & the Environment, entitled, "Deforestation, Global Value Chains, and Corporate Sustainability." Our aim - and hope - is to engage corporate sustainability, corporate social responsibility, and value/supply chain scholars in finding solutions to this stubborn and worsening problem. 

     The call can be found here: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/bse.2639

     Unfortunately, the call is not open access. For the benefit of those who may not have access to full articles in this journal, I am attaching the call (attached PDF) to this email. 

     We invite you to discuss ideas. Contact details are provided below. The deadline for submitting a short proposal is March 30, 2021; full papers are due Sept 1, 2021. 

     

    Thank you,
