Aims & Scope

 

Aims

Sustainable Management Review (SMR) aims to advance both theory and practice in sustainable management and sustainability governance across disciplines. The journal publishes rigorous, peer-reviewed research that addresses real-world sustainability challenges faced by organizations, institutions, and communities, and that informs decision-making for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers. SMR particularly encourages contributions grounded in humanities and social sciences perspectives, and it also welcomes sustainability-related research from STEM fields to foster cross-disciplinary dialogue and integrated solutions that support long-term development while safeguarding environmental integrity, social wellbeing, and ethical responsibility.
