Sustainability in Management Education and the Wider University - ESD in HE Topic Support Network

20th Jan 2017 09:30 – 15:30

The EAUC-Scotland Education for Sustainable Development in Higher Education Topic Support Network, Learning for Sustainability Scotland Task Group and members of the PRME UK and Ireland network will get together to share innovative practices, ideas, and develop inter-disciplinary partnership working to embed sustainability deeper in to teaching, research, and community engagement.
 
The event is aimed at those working in Scotland’s Universities (colleagues from the FE sector and elsewhere in the UK are also welcome), with a few additional places available for other organisations. If you do not work within an FHE institution please contact [email protected] to request a place.
 
The day will start with an introduction to both the EAUC and PRME UK , following which practitioners working around Scotland and Northern England are invited to share current practice in their institutions aimed at embedding sustainability values within business school curricula and agenda for research groups. Those interested in contributing are invited to contact [email protected] to register their interest.

Case studies designed to explore the business/sustainability interface will be presented, with participant discussion around engaging implementation in the classroom. Business in the Community  will share their perspective on how businesses and business / management schools can work better together to address the sustainability agenda locally, with benefits for teaching, research and external engagement.

There will be plenty of time for networking over lunch and during the programme, with all attendees invited to share their own ideas and experiences.

A full agenda will be added to this page and send to all attending delegates within the next few weeks.
