Wageningen University & Research
Are you interested in the impact that global and local supply chains have on social aspects? Are you puzzled by the intricacies of real supply chain networks? Do you enjoy theorizing about complex phenomena but are you at the same time a data-driven person? This trail-blazing project on assessing the social sustainability of complex supply chains could then be a great opportunity for you. Background of the project: The sustainability of supply chains becomes increasingly important. Yet, assessing the sustainability performance of complex supply chains is challenging. In supply chains with multiple flow streams interacting with a variety of actors, the boundaries of what constitutes the supply chain as well as how sustainability aspects of the supply chain are impacted become blurry. Therefore, it is not straightforward how to define the unit of analysis for measuring the various sustainability aspects. This is especially true when considering social sustainability. The impact of flows within the supply chain on social aspects can go beyond the effect those flows may have on the actors that are influencing the performance of the supply chain, thereby affecting stakeholders not directly involved in the supply chain operations. In this PhD project, you will develop and apply a framework for social sustainability assessment of complex supply chains encountered for agrifood and pharmaceuticals. In addition, you will study which supply chain outcomes, either economic, environmental, or social, are key in determining the overall social impact. You will work here
