Montpellier Business School | Chair COAST (Communication & Organising for Sustainable Transformations)

The Communication and organizing for sustainability transformation (COAST) Chair studies and supports processes of societal change and transition to reach the UN sustainable development goals (SDGs), particularly SDGs 7, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 17. The Chair associates two important axis that are inseparable to succeed sustainable transformation: The “Communication” axis analyses and acts upon belief systems and meaning structures; and the “Organizing” axis studies and challenges socio-economic structures to promote ecological, inclusive and just forms of prosperity. Based on its expertise in systems thinking and strategic communication, the Chair brings together businesses, public and civil society actors to transform their practices and collaborations in line with recent scientific advances on sustainable development.
