Collaborating on sustainable food systems with Indigenous communities, reducing modern slavery in global supply chains and supporting refugee workforce integration are just some of the ways the Business School has demonstrated its commitment to the Principles of Responsible Management Education (PRME) in recent years.
The newly released PRME progress report, ‘From Narrative to Action’ (pdf, 5.7MB), details some of the many ways the Business School aligned its teaching, research and operations to the UN’s Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) from 2020-2021.
Professor Greg Whitwell, Business School Dean, acknowledged that despite the challenges and setbacks of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Business School is more focused than ever on inspiring action that advances the SDGs.
“While the global pandemic may have significantly and negatively affected the university sector, like so many others, we never lost sight of our ambition,” Professor Whitwell said.
“In this report, you will see how we are increasingly engaging more staff and students and inspiring action towards a more systematic integration of the SDGs into our processes, and in doing so trying to secure a better future for all.”
