Founded in 2020 by its first holder, Bouchra M'Zali, the African Chair of Innovation and Sustainable Management (CAIMD) is located at Mohamed VI University, Polytechnic. It is also linked to various international institutions including the School of Management Sciences of the University of Quebec in Montreal (ESG-UQAM), St- Mary’s University (Canada), St Andrew’s University (Scotland), Université Ibn Zohr. Its members study and develop emerging business models that integrate environmental issues, including climate and biodiversity, governance issues and socio-economic issues including gender equality and equity between groups.
The mission of the Chair is to build a collaboration between researchers and practitioners from diverse backgrounds and diverse countries. It will host established and developing researchers and partner them with practitioners from the management, finance and policy communities from various countries. Priority research areas will include climate issues, social issues and governance issues related to the management of organizations.
Research Topics
Sustainable Finance and Climate Change
Climate change amplifies not only natural risks (e.g. drought, floods, storms, etc.) but also financial risks (e.g. instability of the financial system). Sustainable finance can play an important role in the fight against the negative impacts of climate change.
Sustainable Finance and Impact Finance: (Impact Investing):
This is a strategy which seeks a balance between social impact (environmental, social, cultural, gender, etc.) and financial benefits. We have worked on this issue from a multi-criteria perspective to establish investment strategies in vaccination campaigns in third world countries, sustainable tourism, sustainable fashion and actions that attempt to reduce gender inequality.
Sustainable Finance and Performance Measures and Indicators:
It aims to build synthetic indicators based on ambiguous logic and multi-criteria decision. This makes them flexible enough to be used in actions aimed at equal opportunities in education, culture and support for minorities.
