SusFlow (Sustainability through Information Flows)

Description: The Susflow project takes a multidisciplinary approach to the operation of business networks in relation to the collection and utilization of responsibility information, such as LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) calculations and evaluations in particular. The purpose is to find ways to improve the flow of sustainability information to create a more accurate and realistic picture of sustainability impacts, and to guide the development of the supplier network's products and processes towards new innovations that take into account sustainability aspects. In the project, the School of Economics' research deals with the strategic choices of supplier companies in relation to responsibility, as well as the factors to be taken into account when directing the supplier network.
