IPM Business School has responded to the global call for business schools and academic associations to advance corporate social responsibility worldwide. The school has committed to adhere to the Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME), which were unveiled by a group of scholars and leading academic organization at the UN Global Compact Leaders Summit in July of 2007.
In its first year of development, the initiative seeks to give adopting academic institutions a leading role: to define a set of good practices on implementation and reporting of the PRME. This will set the ground for a Global Forum of Responsible Management Education to be convened by the end of 2008, where business schools and academic institutions that have adopted the principles will be the main actors.
About the Principles for Responsible Management Education The Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) initiative provides a framework for academic institutions to advance corporate social responsibility through the incorporation of universal values into curricula and research. The PRME has been developed by an international task force consisting of sixty deans, university presidents and official representatives of leading business schools and follows from a recommendation of all academic stakeholders of the Global Compact.
