In this paper, a systematic review of the literature was carried out in order to identify the contributions of frugal innovation in the manufacturing sector. The above, with the objective of knowing these innovations, highlighting the relevance and its contribution to this sector within the global emerging markets. The PRISMA method was used to perform meta-analysis of the theoretical, scientific and practical contributions of goods and services resulting from the frugal philosophy in the emerging manufacturing sector. To achieve the objectives of this research, three indexed databases of high scientific quality and visibility were considered: Scopus, Ebscohost and Science Direct in the period 2010-2020, with a search equation defined by keywords and exclusion and inclusion criteria, in which a first search of 15079 articles was obtained. As a result of the final filtering process, 52 documents were obtained that allowed the identification of these innovations, their classification, description, frugal, social and economic contribution in the benefited communities. This paper provides relevant findings related to the contribution of future perspectives of similar studies and empirical evidence of frugal operational processes (products) that drive the competitiveness of manufacturing firms.

“…While maintaining this core mission, there has been an evolution of second mission in the period of 1810-1980.After the 1980s, tech-transfer i.e., development of the economy has been emphasized a lot. The recent evolution in the university mission is that of fourth mission i.e., sustainability and sustainable development through co-creation (Trencher et al, 2013;Rank et al, 2022).…”

The notion of third mission (3M) activities is becoming increasingly important to exploit universities’ knowledge and capabilities in society. Besides, there is an emerging need of reflection of these activities in ranking methodologies of universities. In Pakistan, national ranking of universities is conducted by HEI statutory body. The purpose of this study is to assess the methodology of national ranking of HEIs in Pakistan for the reflection of third mission activities i.e., entrepreneurial and societal engagement. Content analysis was performed on the national ranking methodology based on Third Mission Model by Molas-Gallart, Salter, Patel, Scott and Duran (2002). The findings of this study revealed that only 1.03% of the third mission activities are reflected in the methodology of the national ranking system of HEI statutory body i.e., Patents (0.52%), ORICs (0.17%), Grant (0.17%) and Exchange (0.17%).This study will provide a critical base to policy makers, to incorporate third mission activities in ranking methodology to address the emerging economic and social challenges faced by the country.

Social sustainability in organizations refers to fostering well-being, inclusion, and the development of supportive relationships that enhance individual well-being and collective resilience. This study explores the relationship between compassionate leadership and work engagement, focusing on the mediating role of employee well-being. Compassionate leaders actively engage with their followers’ needs, offering emotional support and practical help and aligning with social sustainability principles by promoting positive workplace outcomes and fostering a supportive environment. Despite compassionate leadership having generated growing interest, very few studies have adopted a quantitative approach to examining its specific effects on employee outcomes, creating a significant gap in the literature specifically concerning how compassionate leadership affects employee engagement or additional variables, such as employee well-being. Framed in the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) Model, our study addresses this gap by examining whether compassionate leadership can serve as a job resource by increasing work engagement through employee well-being as a personal resource. The study was carried out on a sample of 225 Spanish workers, and the data were examined through a structural equation model (SEM) to test the proposed model. The results showed a good model fit to the data, showing that well-being acts as a key mediator in the relationship between compassionate leadership and job engagement. Although we did not find a direct association between compassionate leadership and engagement, we found that compassionate behaviors significantly improve employee well-being, which in turn promotes higher engagement. These results extend the JD-R model by demonstrating that leaders’ compassionate leadership can serve as a job resource, contributing to a supportive and socially sustainable workplace.
