Energy Justice and Ethics Co-Lead

Dr Cristina Neesham

Dr Neesham is a Reader of Business Ethics and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at Newcastle University Business School, Newcastle University. 

Cristina’s research interests focus on ethical issues raised by the introduction of new technologies (such as digitalisation and artificial intelligence) in the workplace of the future. She also uses philosophical methods to inform the strategic management of global-systemic problems such as climate change. In particular, she investigates interdependencies between individual and group behaviours, social norms and institutional-regulatory regimes and their role in creating (as well as alleviating) social problems. She uses these findings to inform and design ethical capability building projects for industry, government and professional practice.
