Abstract
The research focused on promoting community sustainability and highlighting its role in achieving sustainable development through solar energy, especially since it is considered one of the most important renewable energy sources. Its use reduces gas emissions, carbon waste, and noise, thereby mitigating the impact of climate change. The research question emphasizes that despite the presence of traditional energy sources in Iraq, particularly crude oil and natural gas, these resources are depleted and not renewable. However, their continued use poses a risk of environmental pollution and injustice to future generations. It also focused on reviewing previous studies on the concepts of social sustainability as a starting point for achieving sustainable development goals (the theoretical aspect). It also collected data on the costs of installing and maintaining solar energy systems, as well as monthly and annual consumption calculations for a number of homes. It also selected an agricultural model (irrigation system). It also evaluated the feasibility of investing in solar energy systems over a 10-year period compared to consumption using conventional sources. The research answered the question: What is the relationship between social sustainability and the application of solar energy systems in achieving sustainable development goals? What are the challenges and opportunities facing this relationship in this context?
The research reached several conclusions, including:
- Enhancing community empowerment, which has positive impacts at the local level, such as job creation.
- Enhancing the environmental aspect and environmental sustainability, such as reducing emissions and increasing shaded areas, which reduces temperatures above homes, albeit relatively.
- Among the challenges facing solar energy projects are the lack of funding and a lack of awareness among individuals.
This research is within the general framework and can be modified to suit the circumstances and level of use.
With the assistance of specialists in this field, the design and engineering aspects are detailed and precise, according to the needs of the community. With the situation as mentioned above.
Abstract
The social responsibility of emerging organizations refers to the obligation of management to consider and respond to issues that extend beyond the organization’s administrative, economic, and legal requirements, in a manner consistent with social values and cultural tolerance. Management is composed of individuals who are responsible for routine decision-making and for formulating and implementing organizational policies. Accordingly, it can be argued that the ethical ideals and beliefs of these individuals, particularly their personal values, play an important role in shaping their decisions. Therefore, this study focuses on how cultural tolerance within organizations can contribute to creating and maintaining organizational cultures and a sense of social responsibility. These organizational cultures emphasize ensuring environmental and social sustainability. The study highlights the need for managers to pay greater attention to organizational social responsibility, particularly with regard to the influence of their personal values on their work through cultural tolerance. The first part discusses the concept of cultural tolerance and the relationship between values and organizational cultures within the context of Iraqi society. The second part provides a brief review of organizational social responsibility and explores the perceptions of participating managers, identifying the main thematic patterns embodied and adopted to achieve organizational objectives
