Not just companies, but governments and citizens too have a responsibility in making global value chains more sustainable. That is what Désirée van Gorp, professor of International Business at Nyenrode Business University, firmly believes. Global value chains represent processes in which goods and services are produced, processed, and delivered in different countries. Van Gorp: “Making these chains sustainable means, above all, taking solidarity as a starting point. What is good for us must also be good for people in the countries where we move our activities to, such as production processes.”

Together with Andreea Bulisache, and Virág Varga, Désirée van Gorp left for the island of Samos to deliver a design thinking workshop to the residents of the refugee camp last summer.

Mother Earth does not care about the boundaries we have defined says Désirée van Gorp. Making global value chains sustainable is a shared responsibility.
