Sustainability in Research and Teaching - The UN Global Compacts Principles forResponsible Management Education
At the start of 2007, the newly founded academic network of the United Nations Global Compact (GC) assigned an international task force to work out guidelines for integrating the GC principles into university management education in business ethics. The results of this task force were given to United Nations Secretary-General Ban Kimoon at the GC Leaders Summit in Geneva in July 2007. He then called on the worlds business schools to endorse the GCs Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) and direct their research and teaching so that corporate social responsibility gains a greater, even systematic status.
