Sustainable Research

Professor Makarenko’s investigative interests fit perfectly within the School of Business research aims, teaching and ethos that is driven by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

Her research has explored SDGs 2 and 12 that cover agriculture companies sustainability transparency and global food security, SDG 3 for improvement of national health care systems and post-Covid recovery, as well as SDGs 4 and 8 that focus on educational challenges to ensure decent work and economical growth.

The general context of SDGs and the sustainability research undertaken by Professor Makarenko is to investigate companies' corporate social responsibility, stakeholder engagement and partnerships in various public, finance, and real sectors of the economy, along with the development of corporate and national social responsibility strategies for sustainability.

Additionally, this form of sustainability research addresses overcoming SDG financing gaps, responsible and ESG investment rationale and ways to enhance informational effectiveness of the financial market by modelling its persistence, volatility, and anomalies.
