Abstract:

Managers and researchers are paying more and more attention to corporate social responsibility (CSR), especially in the area of consumer perception and response to CSR. The purpose of this study is to determine how Iraqi consumers in the Kurdistan Region perceive corporate social responsibility, as well as the importance of philanthropic, economic, environmental, ethical, and legal aspects of corporate social responsibility. The study will also compare the findings to those of numerous studies on social responsibility conducted in various countries with the current study. A questionnaire was designed to collect data from 75 participants, including (56%) women and (44%) men ranging in age from (Less than 20) to (More than 30).
