Sustainability at Mannheim Business School
Shaping a sustainable economy and society is one of the central challenges of our time. Climate change, social inequality, and increasing resource scarcity are among the most pressing issues.
For Mannheim Business School, sustainability means actively addressing these challenges and developing concrete solutions. We integrate ethics, responsibility, and sustainability into our research, teaching, and engagement with society. In this way, we educate responsible leaders and contribute to the sustainable development of business and society.
Sustainability Drives our Activities
Integration of Sustainability in an International Context
International frameworks provide guidance for our approach to sustainability. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations offer direction in addressing global economic, social, and environmental challenges. At the same time, the Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) strengthen our commitment to embedding sustainability, responsibility, and ethics in our research and teaching.
We regularly document our progress and initiatives in our PRME reports.
