Assignment:

The Management, Governance and Society module has examined the contribution of business firms and hybrid organisational models to a variety of complex social issues. To understand global challenges, the module has referred to the United National Sustainable Development Framework, which highlights 17 Sustainable Development Goals to be globally achieved between 2015 and 2030. Such global goals are equally relevant to all regions in the world, however the actions through which governments, organizations and citizens in specific areas aim to pursue these global objectives will vary depending on the characteristics of the local socioeconomic and socio-political environment.

The aim of this assignment is to critically evaluate the role of social-purpose organisations (whether private for-profit businesses or hybrid models) in mitigating a specific global challenge of your choice, in a geographical setting of your choice.

As a first step, you should:

- Select 1 or 2 SDGs. Should you choose more than 1 SDG, they should be clearly interlinked to allow for an integrated discussion;

- Select 1 geographical region of your preference (a country, or a region within a country).

In your essay, you should:

- Develop an analysis of the current situation and historical evolution of the region over the past two decades, with respect to the chosen SDG area (ca. 500 words);

- Examine the role of national and international policies to foster improvement in the selected area(s). At least 2 policy interventions (one national, one international) should be described and critically analysed, by highlighting their advantages and disadvantages (ca. 700 words);

- Examine the role of social-purpose organisations in addressing the identified problems in the selected area(s). At least 2 organisations of different kind (e.g. one social enterprise and one public-private partnership or one business firm and one multi-stakeholder partnership) should be described and critically analysed, by highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of their strategies (ca. 1000 words);

- Formulate recommendations for policy and practice, by considering the interdependences between the chosen policies, the social-purpose organisations, and the regulatory, socio-cultural and socio-economic environment (ca. 300 words).

Marking will consider the presence and degree of elaboration of the following points:

- Presentation and critical analysis of relevant examples of social-purpose business or hybrid models. Discussion related to social impact evaluation of said initiatives will be important to clearly demarcate their contribution to the selected SDGs;

- Presentation and critical analysis of relevant examples of policy reforms, aimed to tackle the chosen global challenges. Understanding of intended as well as unintended outcomes of policy measures will be important, to recognize advantages and disadvantages of regulatory interventions, also in relation to business initiatives;

- Contextualization of the above discussions into the institutional/regulatory environment, with elaboration of how contextual conditions influence business formation and policy intervention;

- Integration of the proposed critical evaluation with the theoretical concepts learnt during the module;

- Use of a wide variety of sources (e.g. academic literature, policy reports, press releases, blogs, annual reports, business archival data, interviews, national statistics, etc);

- Document layout and formatting. Formatting should be consistent throughout the document, and should be designed to help readability and content clarity.
