當大家聽見近年流行的「環境、社會和管治(ESG)」及「可持續發展」，很多時便想起氣候變化及綠色科技。但從聯合國的可持續發展目標(SDGs)可見社會及文化因素亦舉足輕重。此講座闡述ESG中的”S”(社會)元素，解釋為何人性化的考量對於商業利益及環境可持續發展攸關重要。講座亦探討包括嶺南大學環球可持續發展課程在內的不同大學課程，如何裝備學生成為社會及文化可持續發展界的未來領袖。

'ESG' and 'sustainability' are trendy terms these days. When we hear these terms, we often think first of climate change and green technology. But the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) show clearly that social and cultural factors are also crucial. This talk explains the "S", the "social" element, of ESG, demonstrating why human concerns are central to both business interests and environmental sustainability. The talk also explores how different university programmes, including Lingnan's Global Development and Sustainability Programme, can prepare students to be future leaders in social and cultural sustainability.
