- Abstract
- The aim of this master's thesis is to identify the message content elements permitting to limit perceived greenwashing by consumers, i.e. when companies mislead consumers about their environmental practices or the environmental benefits of their products or services. To this extent, we want to uncover the dimensions of effective and credible CSR communication, but also the sources of advertisement credibility, consumer scepticism and perceived greenwashing. In the practical part of the research, we focus on a real-life business case - the Belgian fashion brand JBC.
