This issue not only advances academic discourse but also proposes actionable frameworks for practitioners aiming to implement robust and responsible supply chain strategies. The overarching message advocates for a concerted effort to align international cooperation with corporate governance to foster sustain‐ able and resilient supply chains worldwide.
