Special Issue - Multi-Stakeholder Engagement for the Sustainable Development Goals

There is a critical call to review of the purpose of businesses to meet Agenda 2030 and the 17 sustainable development goals. The role of cross-sector partnerships and multi stakeholder engagement to serve the purpose of a common sustainability agenda in connection with Agenda 2030, is analysed in this special issue. It also identifies three pathways for research on multi-stakeholder engagement processes in support of the Decade of Action along three coupling lines: multi-sector alignment (relational coupling), operational perception alignment (cognitive coupling) and goal and strategic alignment (material coupling).
