Applicants should frame their project proposals to fall within the purview of integrating the research areas of communication and reporting to fit into the overall research agenda of trust and corporate social responsibility. The Ph.D. project will explore challenges of integrating non-financial issues into internal and external communication with the ambition of achieving public trust. The Ph.D. candidate will be part of the CBS Center for Corporate Social Responsibility’s research network on corporate social responsibility (CSR) which includes the Nordic Center for Corporate Responsibility with the group of researchers engaged in studies of Strategic CSR Communication.
