About

The Michigan Center for Sport & Social Responsibility conducts cutting-edge, extensive, rigorous, imaginative, and historically-aware research on sport-driven social responsibility, including the motivations, processes and partnerships, and outcomes in settings around the world. The aim is to partner with sport businesses and nonprofits to understand critical success factors and potential inhibitors of effectiveness in programs and organizational structures developed for social impact. These efforts will benefit both society and business.
