About the University Social Responsibility Network (USRN)

The University Social Responsibility Network (USRN) was established in 2015 on the belief that universities have an obligation to work together to find solutions to address economic, social and environmental challenges facing the world today, making the world more just, inclusive, peaceful and sustainable.  

Serving as a global platform to connect and foster partnership among members, the USRN shares ideas and resources to develop collaborative USR projects with varied scope and scale, advancing higher education as a catalyst for social change through education, research and community service. 

The USRN comprises 20 member institutions with a wide geographic spread. Members are leading universities in their countries dedicated to making a positive impact for the benefits of the society and the world.
