Social Sustainability

Social sustainability is one of the three interrelated components of sustainability. For something to be truly sustainable, there must be equal consideration of social (people), environmental (planet), and economic (profit) factors. The social component of sustainability, at its most basic level, concerns the rights and wellbeing of all humans. In a business context, social sustainability encompasses a range of topics, including workplace diversity, fair labor practices, and positive community engagement. Social sustainability is a long-term, ongoing mission of ensuring social conditions and outcomes are optimized for generations to come.

社会可持续性是可持续发展三大相互关联的组成部分之一。若要实现真正意义上的可持续发展，必须兼顾社会（人类）、环境（星球）与经济（收益）三大维度的因素。可持续发展的社会维度，从最基础层面而言，关乎全人类的权利与福祉。在商业语境中，社会可持续性涵盖诸多议题，包括职场多元化、公平劳动实践以及积极的社区参与。社会可持续性是一项长期且持续的使命，旨在确保社会条件与发展成果能够为后世子孙优化配置。
