The theme of this issue is socially responsible training. So what do we mean by that term?

Social responsibility is the principle that state, government, corporations, organisations and individuals have a responsibility to society. This responsibility can be ‘negative’, that is refraining from an action, or ‘positive’, meaning that there is a responsibility to take action.

It is fast becoming the mantra of the 21st century.
