Objective: The objective of the study was to analyze projections that impact sustainable urban mobility for the year 2030 in small and medium-sized cities that use the bus as the main modal. Theoretical framework: The research brings perspectives to make urban mobility in small and medium-sized Brazilian cities more sustainable. Method: The Survey method was used; data collection through a questionnaire applied to public transport specialists in Brazil. In the data analysis, the calculation of the degree of agreement of the answers was used for 13 projections, in three aspects: probability of occurrence, business impact and the desire to occur. The averages of each category were also taken, plotted on a graph with X axis (probability of occurrence) and Y axis (impact on the transport sector). Results and conclusion: The results point to an increase in the use of semi-public transport, tariff changes and greater integration between the bus and more sustainable modes such as walking and cycling. For sustainable mobility, a greater interest in sustainability, investment in infrastructure, dedicated corridors and lanes, integration between modes, use of renewable energy and implementation of subsidy can be the key to environmental solutions. Research implications: The research contributed theoretically to the literature review and managerial and political questionnaire indicating the priority points for public and private investments. Originality/value: The research points out investment points to make urban mobility more sustainable and at the same time profitable for transport companies.

Purpose – Identify how the social dimension is investigated in GSCM and SSCM research and propose a research agenda to integrate the social dimension in GSCM and SSCM. Theoretical framework – The study deals with the social aspect of the triple bottom line, a theory devised by John Elkington, to identify how the topic is treated in GSCM AND SSCM research.  Design/methodology/approach – This study adopted a systematic review of the literature approach to examine the literature that integrates GSCM and the SSCM with a focus on the social aspect, based on criteria and an analysis of published studies adapted from Tranfield et al. (2003). Findings - The study contains a summary of the papers found and a categorization that defines the state-of-the-art approach to the subject. The analysis supports the fact that China, India, and European countries carry out most of the investigation and produce GSCM and SSCM articles, observing the social aspect in their releases. Quantitative studies explore sustainability in the economic, environmental, and social tripod together. Research in social performance is not yet specialized and measuring this type of performance in an organization is very complex. Studies that address social issues are scarce, and there are still many gaps to be filled in the investigation of the social dimension in GSCM and SSCM. Research, Practical & Social implications – As theoretical implications, the study presents a delimitation of the state-of-the-art approach on social issues when GSCM AND SSCM themes are worked together. For practical and managerial implications, it serves as a guide for consulting the best social practices to be adopted by companies. Originality/value – The study works on the social aspect between GSCM and SSCM themes together, and studies that deal with social issues are scarce, contributing to the business management area. Keywords - GSCM, SSCM, Sustainability, Social performance, Social issues, Social aspects.
