PRME - Principles for Responsible Management Education

Sidan granskad:  2025-05-09

SLU participates in PRME - Principles for Responsible Management Education. PRME provides a global network for academic institutions to advance corporate sustainability and social responsibility, and an engagement framework for the incorporation of universal values into curricula and research.

PRME was officially initiated in 2007 by an international task force of sixty deans, university presidents and official representatives of leading business schools and academic institutions. They saw the need for developing a principle-based global engagement platform for academic institutions followed from a recommendation by all academic stakeholders of the UN Global Compact.

Under the coordination of the UN Global Compact and leading academic institutions, the PRME task force developed a set of principles which serve as the foundation for the global platform for responsible management education.

"The Principles for Responsible Management Education have the capacity to take the case for universal values and business into classrooms on every continent." - Ban Ki-moon, former UN Secretary-General

The Department of Economics regularily submits progress reports, in which we account for how we comply with the PRME principles and attain our objectives, and the progress we have made. This is an ongoing process of accommodating to our current understandings of sustainable development.
