This 2-page research note provides an introduction to the supplytrace.org (“Supply Trace”) pilot as an interactive public portal to engage with research on supply chain social responsibility risk. We provide an overview of the pilot program’s goals for social good. We briefly review the methodology involved with aggregating and displaying our initial research and those of our partner university that is responsible for performing investigations. Finally, we share initial findings and limitations of our research pilot.
