24th SRRNet Conference on Social Responsibility and Sustainability
For our 24th Conference we will go to Romania and the unofficial capital of Transylvania – Cluj-Napoca. Join us there in September 2026. Here is the conference website: https://tbs.ubbcluj.ro/srrnet/index.html
As we prepare to celebrate SRRNet’s 25th anniversary in September 2027, I am pleased to share that the venue for this milestone conference will be announced during the closing ceremony of our 2026 conference in Romania.
In addition to our event planning, we have received a wonderful collection of biographies from members detailing how the Network has influenced their lives and careers. We are now inviting members to submit design ideas for the cover of the upcoming book featuring these stories.
We will select the best design for the final publication, and the contributing designer will be fully credited. Please share your suggestions or designs with us by the end of July.
As we celebrate David‘s birthday, it is appropriate to reflect on the background of the Social Responsibility Journal (SRJ). This image shows the very first issue of the Journal. The journal was founded by SRRNet after David organized the very first conference in the field. Originally published directly by SRRNet before Emerald Publishing requested to manage its publication, it was the first academic journal in the field and has since grown to be the leading journal in its category.
N.B. The Website address visible on the cover of the journal in the picture above has been changed to the current address: WWW.SRRNet.org
And the video shows a birthday party organised by the hosting university, UNEMI, in Quito, Ecuador, where we held our 21st conference in 2024. It was indeed a memorable moment. The video of course features another person: Prof Mariana Lima Bandeira, who is one of the editors of SRJ and who organised this memorable event. Our conferences are highly academic and provide excellent opportunities for international collaborations but also full of enjoyment. This year we are excited to hold our conference in Cluj Napoca, Romania. As always we are receiving submissions from a wide variety of disciplines and from very interesting parts of the world.

Throughout the years, the SRRNet conferences have created a wonderful tool for meeting like-minded people from everywhere. Our conferences are really global! Thanks to the leadership, commitment, and contributions of our members from around the world, SRRNet has led the field of CSR and Sustainability for many years. SRJ is of course the first official journal of SRRNet. the second being Technological Sustainability (TechS) which covers the different areas of Engineering and Technology. Currently, the journal is indexed in the most significant global abstracts and is supported by David as the Editor-in-Chief, 16 editors, and a long list of devoted EAB members of SRRNet. Due to the high volume of papers received, the selection process becomes more and more rigorous every year.

The Network is full of initiatives and new ideas as David has always been throughout his life. Soon there will be new arrangements for publications. Check our news and activities regularly.
