Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations have become central to discussions on corporate responsibility and sustainable investment. However, much of the existing discourse, research, and policy development remains focused on the Global North, with limited attention given to ESG practices in sub-Saharan Africa. This volume addresses this gap by examining ESG strategies, policies, and implementation in selected African countries, including South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, and Zimbabwe.
Authored by African scholars, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of ESG frameworks, regulatory environments, corporate governance structures, and sector-specific applications across the region. It explores the intersection of ESG and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the role of financial markets, and the challenges and opportunities of ESG integration in key industries such as mining and energy. Additionally, it considers the impact of emerging technologies in advancing ESG practices.
This book is an essential resource for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners seeking to understand ESG in the African context and its implications for sustainable economic development.
