Abstract:

“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” – Mahatma Gandhi

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Individual Social Responsibility (ISR) are two fundamental concepts that contribute to the social, economic, and environmental development of a nation. While CSR focuses on the responsibilities of businesses to the communities in which they operate, ISR emphasizes the personal duty of individuals towards society. This article explores the roles and significance of CSR and ISR in the context of nation-building, analyzing their impact on social justice, equality, and sustainable development. By evaluating both concepts, this article seeks to underline how both CSR and ISR complement each other in fostering a just, harmonious, and prosperous nation.
