Seventh ISTR Asia Pacific Regional Conference Bali 24-26 November 2011. The proposal must be sent by 14 march 2011. Global Business focus on the ‘value chain’ imperatives of maximising value minimising cost, have failed to link people and their needs, creating ever more poverty, social exclusion, and ethnic conflicts. Globalisation has benefitted those people and groups close to political and economic power at the cost of those in the periphery. Third sector organisations (e.g. NGOs, people’s organisations, foundations, religious organisations and co-operatives) are forced to fill in the ‘gap’ through their social entrepreneurship. It is time to take a stock of business social responsibility, its achievements and failures, and to explore issues of social entrepreneurship and other social justice promoting activities of the third sector.

THE MAJOR THEMES OF THE CONFERENCE THUS INCLUDE: Business social responsibility and the third sector Social entrepreneurship, social justice, and the third sector Third sector in the development of social entrepreneurship Social justice, responsibility and change and the third sector Governance, management, service delivery, advocacy & constituencies
