Several SICCL members, including Dr Jay Cullen, Professor Andrew Johnston and Dr Andreas Ruhmkorf, are investigators on the Sustainable Market Actors for Responsible Trade (SMART) Project, which studies the barriers and drivers for market actors' contribution to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

SMART is a 2.5 million EURO Horizon 2020 Project, led by lawyers at the Law Faculty at the University of Oslo, principally, Professor Beate Sjafjell. SMART does research that serves to promote global, sustainable development within a circular, zero-emission economy compatible with the planetary boundaries and in line with international development goals. Researchers at Sheffield have contributed to a number of outputs from the project, including policy papers, book chapters and journal articles. SICCL also held a SMART themed conference in September 2017.
