13th IRDO International Conference Social Responsibility and Current Challenges 2018: Social responsibility and sustainable development in science, education and business

1 UVODNI NAGOVOR IS NUMBER 13 A LUCKY OR UNLUCKY ONE? Yes, we are facing the number 13 with the »Hrast, A., Glavič, P., Mulej, M., ed. (2018): 13th International Scientific Conference ‘Social responsibility and current challenges 2018: Social responsibility and sustainable development in science, education and business’, 27 September 2018, Maribor, Slovenia, EU”. So what? Well, it is taking place at the same time as the General Assembly of the United Nations Organization. Indirectly, mostly, and directly in some of the many presidential speeches the issue of social responsibility is being addressed there. Thus, not all of them seem to consider, or even to favour, the UN Global Compact and other globally passed documents addressing social responsibility as the humankind’s way out of the current crisis, which is a consequence of the neoliberal economic and political concepts rather than a sign of (1) everybody’s responsibility for their influence over society, (2) interdependence and (3) holistic approach. Our conference is making a rich contribution to implementation of social responsibility and we hope they we do the same soon. This would make the number 13 a lucky one.

JE šTEVILKA 13 SREčNA ALI NESREčNA? Da, s 13. številko se soočamo s »Hrast, A., Glavič, P., Mulej, M., ed. (2018): 13. mednarodna znanstvena konferenca "Družbena odgovornost in trenutni izzivi 2018: Družbena odgovornost in trajnostni razvoj v znanosti, izobraževanju in podjetju", 27. september 2018, Maribor, Slovenija, EU ". Pa kaj? No, poteka hkrati z Generalno skupščino Organizacije združenih narodov. Posredno, večinoma in neposredno v nekaterih od številnih predsedniških govorov se tam obravnava vprašanje družbene odgovornosti. Toda se zdi, da vsi ne upoštevajo ali celo niso naklonjeni Globalnemu dogovoru Združenih narodov in drugim globalno sprejetim dokumentom, ki obravnavajo družbeno odgovornost kot izhod človeštva iz sedanje krize, ki je posledica neoliberalnih gospodarskih in političnih konceptov in ne znak, da se uveljavlja (1) odgovornost vsakega posameznika za njihov vpliv na družbo, (2) soodvisnost in (3) celovit pristop. Naša konferenca bogato prispeva k uresničevanju družbene odgovornosti in upamo, da bomo kmalu storili enako tudi oni. S tem bi bila številka 13 srečna.

DEVELOPMENT Of A NATIONAL ACTION PLAN fOR CSR IN SLOVENIA Maruša Babnik

on behalf of Etri Community, Slovenia marusababnik@gmail.com Abstract This paper is based on the process of first proposal drafting of a National Action Plan for Corporate Social Responsibility (hereinafter CSR) in Slovenia. The process is facilitated by the Road-CSR project, implemented in Slovenia by E-institute and funded by INTERREG EUROPE programme. The paper offers a short overview of the concept of CSR as an approach to be implemented in order to reach the sustainable development goals, and thus a further development of a social state. While CSR is being more widely recognised as such among various international organisations and the EU, it is still relatively poorly known among companies and countries in the region of Central and Eastern Europe. In the region, EU plays an important role in implementing the approach by encouraging the development of national public policies for encouraging the implementation of CSR in the region’s companies. Building on the draft of the National (corporate) social responsibility strategy in Slovenia (for the period of 2018 to 2030), developed by the Government of Republic of Slovenia and representatives of the civil society, business and public sector, the co-creators of the first 2017 CSR strategy consultation and other stakeholders, as well as on the existing policies and measures taken by Slovenia to introduce and promote CSR among Slovenian companies, the author of this paper is coordinating the development of a proposal of National Action Plan for CSR in Slovenia (NAP). This paper further presents the process of NAP development and its first results. Keywords: Corporate Social Responsibility, CSR Strategy, National Action Plan, INTERREG EUROPE ROAD-CSR, E-zavod, Etri Community

ZdruĹženje Socialna ekonomija Slovenije, socialno podjetje Gorkega ulica 34 2000 Maribor ivanusa.mirjana@gmail.com Abstract Networking is crucial for both beginners and experienced entrepreneurs in the business world. Getting to know new people presents new acquaintances that can open up to us a lot of new business opportunities. The socially responsible business of social enterprises is based on knowledge of, and trust in, business partners. Business speed dating is one of the most interesting techniques of learning to know and knowing new people at various events and on different occasions.

Pristop d.o.o. Corporate Communications Department Trubarjeva cesta 79, 1000 Ljubljana vanja.vodenik@pristop.si, www.pristop.si Abstract The CSR National Program L'OrĂŠal - UNESCO "For Women in Science" has been raising awareness and encouraging young researchers to pursue their career in science for the last 12 years. In Slovenia, 53% of women obtain their doctoral degree but only 36.1% remain in the research field. It, therefore, follows that raising awareness of women in scientific fields is necessary. As a result, in the area full of stereotypes this year our communication support took into perspective new and old scholarship holders, their lives as young women researchers and scientists, and the challenges of being a woman in the scientific field. There were many challenges in communicating the topic. With detailed communication strategy, however, we achieved national coverage of the program, raised public awareness of the position of women in science, broken some prejudices and stereotypes as well as motivated and encouraged award-winning young researchers. We also assisted scientists in gaining recognition for their work and presented the project as an opportunity for young researchers to receive a scholarship. We believe the diverse perspectives and intellectual capabilities of women result in new scientific understandings and discoveries which are important for the whole society. Keywords: women in science, communicating science, corporate social responsibility campaign, gender equality, raising awareness.

CHALLENGES IN HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT Barbara Zacirkovnik, MSc

Zavod Emendo Gavce, Slovenia Gavce 28, 3327 Ĺ martno ob Paki E-mail: barbara@emendo.si Abstract The breakdown between the needs and wishes of the company to create profits on the one hand and the needs of the society on the other hand has always been present. The modern business environment expects and demands that companies successfully face the changes and effectively adapt their way of doing business. Therefore, companies need to pay a lot of attention to managing change, and consequently to human resources management, as well as to investment in human capital. In the process of human resource management and personnel development planning, a strategic approach matters that has all the potential to produce the desired effects. Leading managers play a fundamental role in the development of personnel development strategy, as their clear support for all planned activities is urgently needed. At the same time, one should be aware that the old ways of management are no longer working, and it is imperative to learn about new approaches and business models for creative, efficient and successful management. New principles of leadership and cooperative approaches need to be conquered. Cooperating leadership is the challenge of modern times, when employee involvement presents opportunities that can lead to important developments in the company. Keywords: human resources, personnel development, management, leadership, education, training ----------------------------------------

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AS EDUCATIONAL, SOCIALIZATION AND UPBRINGING PROBLEM Vesna V. Godina, PhD

Faculty of Arts, University of Maribor, Slovenia vesna.godina@um.si Abstract My text will offer an analysis of social responsibility in the context of sustainable development from the point of view of educational, socialization and upbringing processes. I will show the connection between social responsibility, sustainable development and educational, socialization and upbringing: one of the basic preconditions of sustainable development is social responsible behaviour of individuals; however, not all individuals are able to practice social responsible behaviour. Social responsible behaviour is a result of special type/types of individuals. In my text I will answer three questions: 1. which individual are able to practice social responsible behaviour; 2. which type/types of educational, socialization and upbringing practices produce these types of individuals; 3. which changes in educational, socialization and upbringing process are preconditions for individuals who are able to practice social responsible behaviour in sustainable development. Key words: social responsibility, sustainable development, education, socialization, processes, behaviour, individuals

Matjaž Mulej, PhD,PhD,

University of Maribor, Faculty of Economics and Business & IRDO Institute for the Development of Social Responsibility, Maribor, Slovenia matjaz.mulej@um.si Abstract: In this paper we will shortly present activities of Movement for Social Responsibility from Slovenia. Movement for Social Responsibility prepared 10 Claims. The movement for social responsibility is a non-party and independent association of individuals that represents the reflections of intellectuals and all socially responsible people about the activities and actions of individuals and institutions that run the state and manage social assets. The center of reflection focuses on finding a balance between the economically viable functioning and the well-being of the whole society and every individual in it. The idea of establishing the Social Responsibility Movement was created after the publication of the book by Rado Bohinc entitled Social responsibility. After publication, a small group prepared a document titled: 10 BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY and sent it to sign to acquaintances and colleagues. More than 100 individuals have agreed with the document and signed it. In the article, we briefly present 10 Basic Requirements for Social Responsibility and the contents of the proceedings of this movement, which will be published soon.

SOCIOLOGICAL ASPECT Of HOMESCHOOLING THE INfORMAL AND NON-fORMAL APPROACH TOwARDS SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Alja Perger, M.S., B.S. (soc. & phil.)

DOBA University Slovenia 2015, Ch. Saint-Louis, Saint-Lazare, QuĂŠbec, Canada aljaperger@gmail.com Abstract With this article, Sociological Aspect of Homeschooling, the Informal & Non-formal approach towards Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development, we would like to open a new stage, mostly more recognizable, of understanding this different educational approach and discussion. It might be an early stage of a still developing new, alternative educational model, mostly for the elementary students. This article tries to cover the following levels, i.e. parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; involvement and their participation into the educational process, impact of the school system as an important cultural universality in a specific society, and the individual participation in all this process. The article addresses an important discussion from the viewpoint of the social responsibility. It starts with comparison of its effect in mainstream schools and its resulting disappointment of majority. It continuous with educational aspect of changing the environment, which can provide a new, different, maybe major acceptance of a real understanding of social responsibility long after the main school process inside institution is done. Following, it shows the path of focusing on the significant role of education in empowering people to achieve sustainable development. Educators have attempted to implement a number of sustainable development initiatives. This inspires people to actively participate in the creation of a world where everyone has the opportunity to benefit from quality education and learn the values, behavior and lifestyles required for a sustainable future and for positive social transformation. It covers the full range of human activities in order to equip learners with the relevant knowledge, skills and values for sustainable development. At the same time, education is transformed to allow learning to take place beyond the traditional educational institutions. Keywords: home schooling, alternative schooling, school system, socialization, family, individual competence, school curriculum

Kaja Bračič, Student

Fakulteta za kemijo in kemijsko tehnologijo, Univerza v Ljubljani bracic.kaja@gmail.com Abstract In Slovenia, more than a third of students attend secondary school gymnasiums. At the time of their education young people acquire a lot of theoretical knowledge and less practical knowledge. In practice and in the labor market there is a lack of their competence therefore. Young people do not know themselves well enough, as the existing educational programs do not allow them to recognize themselves better. We made a desktop survey, and later two different surveys among young people and professional staff to gain relevant data. With these data we created a proposal for new, socially responsible gymnasium system. The proposal for this new system consists of three foundation subjects, the quantity of which varies over the years. The system enables to youngsters a creative and cultural education and integration to the local environment, as this can enable young people to develop their competencies for the development of innovative ideas and solutions. We as youth understand education as connection and balance between theoretical and practical knowledge, abilities and constant innovation. Key words: education, gymnasium, curriculum, education in Slovenia ----------------------------------------

The article is about presenting different ways to help them and at the same time the view of young people (between 15 and 29 years of age) about these kinds of projects.

Monika Rajšp s.p., Maribor, Slovenia rajsp.monika@gmail.com Abstract: Model M means to be young and to be a model for others (the Role Model) how to find innovative employment, or create your own employment, and thus become and remain an active citizen. The purpose of the Model M Slovenija project was to empower young people with training, networking, counselling and active participation in society to create their own Models of Success. In this article, we show how we in IRDO institute already in 2014 have calculated (using the SROI calculation), that each EUR of the contribution to the Model M project is returned to the society within three years. This actually happened, since in 2016 IRDO acquired a project Model M Slovenia that multiplied for 10 times the funds invested in the pilot implementation of a similar project in the Podravje region. Key words: Model M, young, employment, Social return on investment, impact measurement, social responsibility ----------------------------------------

EVALUATING LEARNING ACTIVITIES RELATIONSHIPS TO SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY ELEMENTS: A SUMMER SCHOOL CASE Ass. Prof. Dr. Igor Perko

University of Maribor Faculty of Economics and Business Razlagova 20, 2000 Maribor Igor.Perko@um.si Abstract Social responsibility is defined by the behaviour of the system. It depends on its understanding of the environment and self-evaluation of its capacities and above all the goal-set it possesses. Students are in the process of development of their capacities and more importantly, defining their goal-set. This is an ongoing process that they embody through their daily experiences. This paper examines the effects of a Jean Monnet module summer school module for the development of studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; concepts and goal-set related to social responsibility. In the research, the social responsibility elements are compared with the summer school activities. The overlapping/gap analysis elaborates the points, where the summer school supports the development of student capabilities and goal set and where further effort is needed to do so. For the lecturers, the topics and methods, related to the social responsibility are elaborated. For the policy makers, evidence of the importance of the learning events expanding the limitations of the regular curricula is provided. Keywords: Jean Monnet, EU, Social Responsibility, BigData.

GET MOVING, SUSTAINABILITY! INNOVATIVE TEACHING METHODS Of EDUCATION fOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT fOR PHYSICAL EDUCATION M.S. Julia Wlasak

University of Graz Regional Centre of Expertise on Education for Sustainable Development (RCE) Graz Attemsgasse 11, 8010 Graz, Austria julia.wlasak@uni-graz.at rce.uni-graz.at Abstract Sports and movement are essential for sustainable health and preventing of stress and chronicle diseases. Sport, the language that everybody speaks, offers worldwide possibilities of interactions to deal with conflicts in a fair way by learning social and individual skills. Sport makes you be more aware of environmental conditions while offering multi-dimensional learning opportunities regarding social, cultural, health-wise and environmental aspects (Krüger and Neuber 2011, EFIC 2009, Weineck 2009, Glanz et al. 2008). So how come Physical Education (PE) still represents an unexplored research field in sustainability studies even though the aims of the United Nations Decade and the Global Action Programme for ESD are to implement sustainability into all parts of education? This paper addresses this gap and aims to include ESD in PE to enable educators and teachers to re-think their teaching to empower pupils “to acquire the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values necessary to shape a sustainable future” (UNESCO 2012) by answering the following questions: • How can the combination of ESD and PE increase awareness of global challenges and improve knowledge of pupils? • How can established methods for ESD be incorporated in PE? • How can these methods be realized? Based on a needs-analyses by asking pupils (target group 10th grade) on general interest, life-styles and opinions on SD, concrete teaching units for physical education combined with methods of ESD were developed that include evaluation and revision based on qualitative interviews. The results broaden interdisciplinary and integrative teaching approaches and enable teachers to empower pupils to contribute to sustainable development.

wHY fORCED MIGRATION MATTERS IN EDUCATION fOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (ESD): INCLUDING CRITICAL fORCED MIGRATION STUDIES & INTERCULTURAL LEARNING IN THE HOLISTIC CONCEPT Of ESD PhD. Wlasak Petra

University of Graz Regional Centre of Expertise on Education for Sustainable Development Attemsgasse 11/EG, 8010 Graz, Austria petra.wlasak@uni-graz.at http://rce.uni-graz.at Abstract “By the end of 2016, 65.6 million individuals were forcibly displaced worldwide as a result of persecution, conflict, violence, or human rights violations”(UNHCR 2017). This has been the largest number since the beginning of the official data collection after the Second World War. Although forced migration is one of the grand challenges humanity faces today, it has not been dealt with comprehensively within the scientific and practical discourse of Education of Sustainable Development (ESD). This can be considered a critical lack, since ESD has a holistic approach and aims to include all dimensions of sustainable development (Embacher & Wehling 2002, Michelsen & Adomßent 2014). The paper explores how migrants can be included in ESD measures. Based on the assumption of critical migration theory (Mecheril et al. 2013), which acknowledges migrants as actors and not victims within the global migration regime (Tsianos 2010), the paper explores how migrants can take the role of witnesses of global-local interplays and experienced managers of limited resources within ESD measures. To do so, an intercultural and migration-sensitive learning approach (Deardorff 2004, Sprung 2004) is applied within an ESD class of 9th graders with various cultural backgrounds in Graz/Austria, in order to reach the target group and learn more about the needs and knowledge of migrants.

CAPITAL, LABOUR, AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY – VIEwPOINT Of ECONOMY AND SOCIETY Assoc. Prof. Živko Bergant, PhD

Visoka šola za računovodstvo in finance, Ljubljana Ljubljana, Slovenia zivko.bergant@vsr.si Abstract The author defines social responsibility in terms of the added value law and in terms of responsibility for the creation of an appropriate socio-economic system. He notes that the modern political economy has neglected the field of distribution. An appropriate distribution is a prerequisite for practicing the social responsibility. Therefore, the appropriate ratio between work and capital in acquiring a stake in the added value is also a precondition for improving social responsibility at all levels. The author presents the model of surplus added value and, on the basis of this, also the accounting statement of surplus added value, which is focused on the equality of stakeholders and presents compensation for the profit and loss account. Keywords: social responsibility, sustainable development, added value, surplus added value statement. ----------------------------------------

CAPITAL, wORK AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY - ECONOMIC AND LEGAL ASPECTS Dr. Mato Gostiša

Študijski center za industrijsko demokracijo Kranj, Slovenia scid@siol.com Abstract In the paper, the author tries to draw attention to the fact that the concept of "comprehensive" social responsibility cannot, in practice, be developed and implemented without prior "systemic" changes, which also affect the legal and institutional foundations of current capitalism as a socioeconomic system. Namely, under the current legal concept of a capitalist company and an employment relationship, which is also a direct institutional basis for the current wage (ie, ordinary market exchange, purchase), the "fundamental production relationship" between the owners of labor and capital is already basically incompatible with the idea of social responsibility. It is more or less unnecessary to theorize on social responsibility within the systemic frameworks of classical "wage" capitalism. But, in reality, it would be entirely possible, in essence, to have a different, that is, "non-aggressive" capitalism (conditionally called "economic democracy"), which, however, will have to be processed theoretically as a system. And this should apply in modern social sciences as soon as possible, and the author proposes some basic guidelines in this respect. Keywords: comprehensive social responsibility, socioeconomic system, wage basic production relationship, wage capitalism, elementary systemic equal (legal), economic democracy.

Retired Full Professor Maribor, Ul. A . Tovornika 9, Maribor, Slovenia Jusa.riedl@gmail.com Abstract The concept of social responsibility encompasses dignity per se. In an aging society a special group of stakeholders has emerged, the population of older people. This is not a homogenous group and just because of that their dignity should be carefully treated, with respect. Being daily in contact with people living in centre for elderly my attention is paid to their dignity. At first categories as dignity, aging and age are shortly investigated and explained. Some observations of troubles people have with changing their living environment help to suggest a few possible improvements.

Social responsibility, namely does not replace law, but adds to law. On the topic of elderly in Slovenia, there are many laws, along with Constitution, but they do not seem to work in synergy, hence to fully cover the three basic concepts of social responsibility that are (1) one’s responsibility for one’s influence on society, (2) interdependence, and (3) holistic approach, supported by the seven principles from ISO 26000.

GREEN SOCIAL fRANCHISE AS A SUPPORT fOR CROSS-SECTORAL COOPERATION TOwARDS A CIRCULAR ECONOMY M.S. (world studies), Petra Props Etri Community, Slovenia Zavod Zelena praksa petra.props@etri.si www. etri.si

Lenka Puh

Etri Community, Slovenia Jazon d.o.o. lenka.puh@etri.si www.etri.si Abstract This paper presents the Etri Community as a concept of a green social franchised business model, representing a support mechanism for a sustainable cross-sectoral cooperation in the emerging circular economy in areas, in which the community needs synergy or solving of concrete social and professional challenges. Etri Community’s mission is job creation for vulnerable groups primarily in the communities with high unemployment and in sectors, where established models are ineffective. Etri franchise is a cooperative approach that requires a complete transformation of how society perceives the economy and aims to change consumer habits. It focuses on three main approaches: Ecology, Ergonomics and Ethical Economy. Although a franchise by definition, Etri franchise demands a closer partnership between franchisor, franchisee and at the same time introduces a new category of a “franchise practitioner”. The collaboration of the three is based on a consensus about ethical and business standards (Etri principles), arising from Corporate Social Responsibility and social inclusion of individuals facing diverse challenges in labour market. The paper further explains the relationship among the three. Another peculiarity of Etri franchise is that profit is of secondary importance, since investments in development and positive social impact, are placed at the forefront. All profits are thus primarily used for research and development function, the maximisation of the social impact on local level, creating costs savings for entities and society, and facilitating the development of circular economy. Lastly, the paper presents how Etri Community measures its social impact. Key Words: Etri franchise, Etri Principles, Etri Community, Social Impact, Circular Economy, Corporate Social Responsibility

OwNERSHIP TRANSPARENCYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S IMPLICATIONS ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS Mihael Sket, member

Hub for Tax Justice hosted by SLOGA platform, Slovenia mihael201111@yahoo.com Abstract This paper explores possible implications the implementation of beneficial ownership transparency requirements could have on the achievement of specific sustainable development goals, among others through their role in corporate disclosure and tax transparency. Slovenia is one of the first EU members to transpose and implement the 4th Anti-Money Laundering Directive to national legislation. National legislation even exceeds the requirements of the transposed directive. Slovenia is thus one of the few EU member states that established a public register of beneficial owners for all companies and trusts, which are registered or tax liable in the member state. Author presents the Slovenian register of beneficial owners and related legislation as well as the role the register can play in striving to improve corporate tax responsibility and wider corporate social responsibility. The paper further presents the findings of interview-based survey of different stakeholdersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; viewpoints on the application value of the register of beneficial owners in Slovenia. The issues raised by accountants and representatives from business, public administration and civil society give an insight into the value of the current register. Although the vast majority of affected legal entities have entered their data, a nominee director is named instead of a beneficial owner in many cases. What are the reasons and implications? Lastly, the author of the paper discusses what needs to be done to raise public awareness and scrutiny on topics related to beneficial ownership in the framework of sustainable development.

THE DEVELOPMENT Of SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP STARTS wITH APPROPRIATE REGULATION M.S. Mojca Kunšek

Director Agency of Republic of Slovenia for Public Legal Records and Related Services (AJPES) Tržaška cesta 16, Ljubljana mojca.kunsek@ajpes.si and www.ajpes.si Abstract: The fundamental purposes of the European Commission include reviving the entrepreneurial spirit in Europe as the main lever for the growth of economic development, employment and welfare. The European Commission emphasizes in its Entrepreneurship 2020 Action Plan the importance of entrepreneurial growth as a fundamental driver of social development and directs Member States to adopt policies to promote growth at all stages of entrepreneurship. By GLEIF the entrepreneurial activity can be implemented in one of the 1600 legal forms of business in the European countries. It is common for all to achieve added value, which at the macroeconomic level reflects in the growth of consumption and thus economic prosperity, which can’t be measured only in GDP. The legal framework of entrepreneurship in Slovenia is based primarily on the Companies Act, which does not touch the functioning of non-profit companies, although they also make a significant contribution to employment and the growth of social welfare. On the basis of the data from Slovenian Business Register and different surveys article analyses Slovenia legal framework and tries to define the main obstacles for better regulation and records of socially oriented entrepreneurial ecosystem.

SKILLS USE – GOVERNMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY OR (AND) RESPONSIBILITY Of THE ECONOMY? Dr. Magda Zupančič

IRDO Institute & Ministry of Labour, Family, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities Kotnikova 28, SI-1000 Ljubljana magdaz@siol.net, magda.zupancic@gov.si Abstract Identification of skills needs, along the provision and the acquisition of adequate skills should belong to strategic goals of the socially responsible society. The right skills are the precondition for a functioning labour market, good economic performance, productive and inclusive individuals throughout the whole life cycle. Relevant skills should respond to labour market needs as well as to the economy requirements. Additionally, digitalization and fast technological changes require permanent investments into skills. Educational paths in Slovenia are not aligned with the economy requirements, skills do not correspond to actual industrial policy priorities. Only by matching skills needed within the industrial policy and forecasting of skills needs, the country can generate desirable goals of higher efficiency of human capital and higher productivity in the economy. Relevant skills could be better used in the working life, in the civil life and should enable social inclusiveness and well-being throughout the whole life cycle. Furthermore, ageing trends in Slovenia require upskilling and increase in the productivity to mitigate negative effects of lower participation rates in the labour market and to sustain economic growth. Social partners, especially employers and chambers should have an important role in identification of skills needs and gaps. The article describes the situation of the skills use in Slovenia in comparison with EU and OECD countries. It focuses on foreseen skills challenges and skills forecasting needs. The article offers solutions and policies for better skills matching and further reflections on more co-ordination between educational policies and the economy skills requirements. Key words: Education, skills mismatches, skills gaps, industrial policy, forecasting ----------------------------------------

Matjaž Mulej, double Ph. D.

Emeritus Professors, Systems and Innovation Theory, University of Maribor, Faculty of Economics and Business, And IRDO Institute for the Development of Social Responsibility, matjaz.mulej@um.si Abstract The current dilemmas include preconditions for making a socially responsible society become reality, the alternative of which is the 3rd World War or even extinction of the current human society of humankind. Bureaucratic governments oppose their own social responsibility, especially in their role of tools of monopolistic companies; the European Union’s government is such a dangerous case. Brexit (the British decision to exit the European Union), is a new opportunity to diminish the far-away and bureaucratic attributes of the government of the European Union and to increase the social responsibility of it and of governmental and other most influential persons and bodies in Europe, including the British ones. The article elaborates briefly the socio-economic purpose of the concept of social responsibility and elucidates the underlying political considerations that informed the June 23, 2016 referendum on Brexit and to consider alternative socially responsible economic organization, based on networking that could alleviate the troubling disparities in income, wealth, and political control to be found in the majority of the regions of the UK. Implications for the survival of the EU and its member states are also considered.

LOCAL AGENDA 21 IN GLADSAxE Kim Christiansen,

Chair, Local Agenda 21 in Gladsaxe lcakim@gmail.com Abstract In 2015, world leaders adopted the Sustainable Development Goals as part of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development. Officially, into force January 1., 2016. 17 overall goals, 169 targets and at present 232 indicators. A huge and very challenging agenda, that requires contributions not only from countries and their governments and administrations, but also from private industry, from NGOs and many other organisations, from local municipalities and from all citizens of the world. In the association, Local Agenda 21 in Gladsaxe, we have worked with sustainable development focusing on nature and environment for 20 years. And for the last nearly 2½ years, we are using the SDGs to frame and focus our activities. Among these is participation in the yearly marked day of Gladsaxe, where all types of politicians, local organisations, civil servants and others meet to inspire and exchange, and to have a good time. We focussed on SDG # 12 in 2017 and gave examples on how a local citizen can contribute. In 2018, we prepare a broader approach, where we by addressing relevant targets and indicators have found options for citizens to contribute to all 17 SDGs. We thereby can skip the discussion on which of the 17 to focus on – and which to forget! Thereby, we leave no SDG’s behind. The presentation will give examples on how we communicate. And especially on our experiences with an online assessment tool where the citizen can grade their own behaviour on selected issues and see an illustration on how this contributes to the overall achievement of the SDG’s. The presentation will include other local and citizen oriented examples on how to contribute to the SDG’s in Denmark.

Abstract The paper addresses the deterioration of the quality of life of the Koper's inhabitants as a result of the ships' noise and emissions in the Port of Koper while maneuvering. This is a typical case of the social irresponsibility of some organization that badly affects citizens. The main idea of the research and the conceptual, causal model are introduced to reveal the interrelations among significant latent factors. The latter are indirectly measured via the indicator variables such as historical cargo throughputs, noise and emissions measurements, and time-dependent number of medically defected people. The questionnaire-based ordinal variables that reflect the perception of inhabitants’ life quality deterioration are also included as indicators. The Factor analysis and Structural Equation Modelling can be conducted to disclose the impact of the negative effects of Ports’ activities on the inhabitants’ health, as well as the deteriorated overall quality of life. Based on the analysis’ results, the Koper Municipality authorities might have got a strong scientific argument to take appropriate measures to protect their own citizens against the socially irresponsible behavior of the addressed port. Keywords: Social Responsibility, Deterioration of the quality of life, Influence of the Port’s ships’ activities on the inhabitants’ health, Factor analysis, Structural Equation Modelling, Quantification of social irresponsibility. ----------------------------------------

INSTITUTIONAL PRESSURES AND BUSINESSES CLIMATE CHANGE STRATEGIES Tiberio Daddi

Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, Institute of Management, Piazza Martiri della Libertà 33, 56127 Pisa, Italy Abstract Recent studies have highlighted the need to apply management and organizational theories to understand and interpret businesses climate change initiatives. Too often previous published studies took a practical approach and did not contribute to the theoretical development. Thus, in this frame, we aim to analyse the adoption of mitigation and adaptation strategies through the lens of institutional theory. This article uses data from a survey of 487 Italian companies to investigate the effects of institutional pressures (coercive, normative and mimetic pressures) on businesses climate change sensitivity and consequently on mitigation and adaptation strategies. The results show how normative and mimetic pressures positively influence the businesses’ climate change sensitivity, while this positive relationship is not confirmed for coercive pressures. In addition, climate change sensitivity contributes to trigger the adoption of mitigation and adaptation strategies by the firms included in the sample. Keywords: institutional theory, mitigation strategies, adaptations strategies, isomorphism, climate change.

ACHIEVING A SUSTAINABLE HEALTH SYSTEM PROPOSING A CONCEPTUAL fRAMEwORK fOR A SYSTEM Of ‘SUSTAINABILITIES’ AND A NEw fOCUS fOR THE DEBATE ON SUSTAINABILITY Jean-Paul Ngana

Email: jpaul_ngana@yahoo.ca Abstract Sustainability has since the late 1990s dominated the debate on health system. The uncertainty that has been surrounding the situation of the economic and financial in the world, are adding to the already existing concerns of accelerating costs and increasing doubts regarding the system capacity and resources in meeting the health services needs. In this debate health system and health care system are often used interchangeably; and the focus has often been on the couple ‘revenue and expenditure’. The debate has therefore mainly focused on the accounting perspective: playing with the level of revenue to decide on the level of expenditure for the health care system. The alarm bell has always been sounded when there is a decline in revenue and continuous increase in health system expenditure. This paper acknowledges the importance of the accounting dimension (cost-containment) in the health system sustainability debate; however, it challenges the dominant focus on this dimension and reviews the various ‘Sustainabilities’. It differentiates between health system and health care system and acknowledges how critical is the health-to-wealth relationship (e.g. economic costs of ill health). Using the Systems thinking methodology and the principles of Mulej's Dialectical System theory (Law of Requisite Holism), a conceptual framework is then proposed for a System of ‘Sustainabilities’ (i.e. the interconnectedness of the various ‘Sustainabilities’), towards achieving a sustainable health system. A new focus is proposed for the debate on the Sustainability of health system at the meta decision-making level, which will be on the sustained linkages between the various ‘Sustainabilities’, grounded on social responsibility principles. Keywords: Expenditure, health care system, health system, health-to-wealth relationship, Meta decision- making level, revenue, sustainable health system, System of ‘Sustainabilities’, Systems thinking, Dialectical System theory (Law of Requisite Holism), social responsibility.

University of Maribor, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Transportation Engineering and Architecture Chair of Architecture Smetanova ulica 17, SI-2000 Maribor, Slovenia vesna.zegarac@um.si Abstract A large proportion of European building stock, which was constructed before the 1970s, when the first energy building regulations were introduced, poses an enormous potential to decrease energy consumption and environmental impacts of aging building stock. Accordingly, refurbishment of buildings, which are currently responsible for about 40% of final energy consumption and 35% of CO2 emissions, was acknowledged by the EU as an opportunity for reaching the ambitious 2020 and 2050 energy and climate objectives. Building retrofit is a comprehensive process, therefore it should consider not only energy but also structural, economic, architectural and social aspects, all of these forming interaction of main viewpoints of sustainable design. The main aim of this paper is to assess the energy efficient refurbishment of three existing multifamily buildings. The impacts of individual refurbishment measures and carefully selected complex refurbishment packages on the energy efficiency of refurbished buildings in comparison with the case study buildings concerning their building typology is examined. The findings of this research are transferred into educational process and can serve architects and engineers in their decision making and early design stage. Keywords: Building refurbishment, energy-efficiency, refurbishment measures, refurbishment packages, building typology.

At their Learning Demonstration Centers, they introduce the principles of permaculture into the usual industries such as agriculture, construction, energy ... They want to change them into sustainable ones and make them commercially interesting, as they will justifiably be accepted as part of competitive economic practices. Their values are based on the laws of nature, because it alone manages the whole and sustainability its system and is based on laws that treat all parts of it equally. The PIM's directive: The only ethical decision is to accept responsibility for the existence and the existence of our children. Let's do it now!
