Co po a e social esponsibili y
A he beginning o he wen y-fi s cen u y, he concep o CSR

g ea e social awa eness. Companies a e inc easingly de o ing
esou ces o a ious social ini ia i es, anging om communi y ou -
each and en i onmen al p o ec ion o b oade socially esponsible

a powe ul and posi i e o ce o social change bu also by he mul i-
ple business benefi s ha companies can de i e om hei CSR e o s
(ibid,1).
The G een Pape “P omo ing a Eu opean F amewo k o Co po a e
Social Responsibili y”(Eu opean Union, 2001)defines CSR as he
cyclical ela ionship be ween companies and socie y, when busi-
nesses decide olun a ily o con ibu e o a be e socie y, he eby

and indi iduals in o hei business p ac ices (Ali, Mus apha, Osman,

pany’s pe o mance in he social−economic sphe e, including gene al
go e nance, employmen s anda ds, human esou ces, and en i on-
men al p ac ices (Ha pe Ho, 2016).
This e o owa d add essing social esponsibili y culmina ed in
he de elopmen o Sus ainable De elopmen Goals (SDGs). In 2015,
he membe s a es o he Eu opean Union app o ed he documen

Se e al ac o s ha e led he concep o CSR o de elop owa d he

Wang, Jiang, Li, & Li, 2022). The concep o USR comes om he need

13). The b ead h o he concep has esul ed in se e al e minologies
ha define he concep o USR in a ious con ex s, al hough he a i-
e y o e ms only de i es om he specific aspec s o how USR mani-
es s i sel (Esfijani, 2012).
The no ion o USR is d i en by socie y’s demand o highe educa-

anchez, Rod íguez Bolí a , & L

so all SDGs should be in eg a ed in o he ins i u ion and able o
impac in a a ie y o ways in he se ice o socie y. The li e a u e

p.2).
USR has been also defined as “a e-concep ualiza ion o he uni-
e si y ins i u ion as a whole in he ligh o alues, objec i es, o ms
o managemen , and ini ia i es ha imply a g ea e commi men o

Discussion
F om he analysis o he esul s o he su ey, i is e iden ha
eache s a e no gene ally conscious o USR p ac ices in hei campus

eache s do no belie e ha he uni e si y displays i s policies clea ly,
in answe o H1. This ag ees wi h he esea ch ca ied ou by
C
espedes Agui e (2019), who no iced ha eache s usually do no
ha e a posi i e opinion abou he go e nance adminis a ion o uni-
e si ies in ma e s o human esou ces and en i onmen . As in any
o he business wi h a non-pe cei ed CSR, his migh a ec hei sense
o ins i u ional p ide and, ul ima ely, he suppo hey gi e o he uni-
e si y’s ac ions and hei p o essional de elopmen (Ng e al., 2019).
Howe e , a socially esponsible uni e si y has a posi i e e ec on i s
employees, in his case, eache s, in e ms o epu a ion, commi -
men , unding and compe i i eness (Lo, Pang, Eg i & Li, 2017, p. 56).
A esponsible uni e si y should p io i ize au onomy, anspa en
communica ion, delibe a i e dialog, and espec o human igh s
and en i onmen al p o ec ion while engaging i s membe s in go e -
nance p ocesses o make decisions ha benefi he academic commu-
ni y (Sanz e al., 2017, p. 61).
Th ough he ques ions ega ding social pa icipa ion and p o es-
sional aining, only a small numbe o eache s ac i ely include
social ma e s in hei subjec s and encou age s uden s o conside
hese issues (H2). This coincides wi h he esea ch ca ied ou by
Balye and
€
Ozcan (2020, p. 6), which claims ha eache s a e no
awa e o hei social ole and he impac hey ha e on s uden s’
belie s. The same s udy p oposes ha aining is key o de eloping
such needed awa eness. In addi ion, Hooge e al. (2011) s a e ha
“al hough he eache s a e awa e o a ‘no ma i e pedagogical social
mission,’ he majo i y a e no awa e ha hey a e expec ed o pe -
o m a ‘b oad social mission’” (p. 311). Ano he ac o o highligh is
ha he en husiasm and mo i a ion o eache s ega ding social
issues can also influence how hese u u e p o essionals de elop hei
ac i i ies and pu social ac ions in o p ac ice (F enzel, Taxe , Schwab
& Kuhbandne , 2019).
The same conce n can be seen in he social managemen o
knowledge p oduc ion (H3), since he e is e y li le discussion abou
how social ma e s should be inco po a ed in o he subjec s and how
he knowledge in his a ea should be deal wi h. Social esponsibili y
should ul ima ely be de eloped “ om he ex e nal demands o he
p o essional en i onmen ”(Gallo, 2022, p. 206); howe e , he esul s
ha e shown ha he majo i y o eache s do no ake ex e nal social
ac o s in o conside a ion and he e is no discussion o social ma e s
when designing he cu iculum. As s a ed by Lo e al. (2017) “ he
ecip ocal in e ac ion be ween uni e si y and communi y is he key
link whe e knowledge can be disco e ed and ans o med in o p o-
duc i i y and inno a ion”(p. 49). The only way an educa ional ins i-
u ion can in e ac wi h he socie y a ound i is by pa icipa ing in
public deba es conce ning socie al ma e s ha impac he common
good and uni e sal ci izenship, he eby os e ing engagemen and
con ibu ing o he be e men o socie y (Sanz e al., 2017, p. 61).
One o he implica ions o hese esul s is ha eache s need o
acqui e knowledge abou social issues and be awa e o hei ole,
eflec ing on hei p ac ice and he impac hey ha e on hei s u-
den s’p o essional ca ee s. One example is he aining ac i i y p o-
posed by Ramos San ana, Mo al Mo a, Chi a Sanchís and P

Ca bonell (2022). Al hough i was aimed a educa ion eache s and
uni e sal design, his ac ion has p o ed o be an e ec i e ool in

aining could be p oposed o eache s a business uni e si ies, guid-
ing hem o a be e inclusion o opics o social ele ance in hei
subjec s.
Ano he implica ion is he need o o m alliances be ween he
uni e si y and he communi y. Sanz e al. (2017) ad oca e ha
“when people exe cise hei eedoms h ough social pa icipa ion,
hey pa icipa e in he defini ion o selec ion o he social p io i ies

de elopmen s, helping i o achie e a mo e inclusi e and en i on-

Achie ing a highe le el o social esponsibili y and ulfilling he
