PRME Global
We are pleased to remind you that registrations are open for the 6th PRME Asia Forum, which will take place in Goa Institute of Management (GIM), Goa, India on 27-28 November 2015. The theme of the Forum is “Integrating Responsible Management.” It will be preceded by a workshop on Teaching Responsible Management on 26 November 2015.
Over the past few decades, economic growth in Asia has resulted in profit and wealth-accumulation for business, often at the cost of the environment and the society. This could compromise the region’s stability and the ability of the future generations to meet their needs. At risk is the region’s long-term economic growth. Unless business, government and civil society cooperate, these problems cannot be addressed.
Delegates and speakers at the 6th PRME Asia Forum would do the following:
• Reflect on the role of business enterprises and B-schools in advancing Responsible Management Education and implementing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),
• Share what business enterprises and B-schools are doing to integrate responsibility towards society & environment into their strategies,
• Motivate administrators and teachers across business schools to integrate responsibility into their courses,
• Promote networks among business schools and between business enterprises and B-schools to implement responsibility-enhancing projects jointly,
• Discuss (further) the next steps and activities for the PRME Chapters in Asia (PRME Chapter ASEAN +, PRME Chapter South Asia and PRME Chapter East Asia.
