The Trust-Sustainability Nexus in Social Entrepreneurship (TSN-SE) Project

The Trust-Sustainability Nexus in Social Entrepreneurship (TSN-SE) Project is a focused research initiative investigating how trust operates as the critical enabler of sustainable social impact. Through systematic literature reviews and conceptual analysis, the project develops novel frameworks to address key tensions such as digital scaling, investor relations, and mission resilience, faced by social entrepreneurs. The project seeks to make a dual contribution: to extend the theoretical frontiers at the intersection of trust and sustainability, and to translate these insights into evidence-based frameworks for practitioners, with results channeled into leading disciplinary publications.
