Abstract:

Business schools are more and more thinking about innovative ways to integrate sustainability into the curriculum. The Summer School Sustainable Management was developed by the close collaboration between three Belgian organisations, i.e. KU Leuven, a university, Odisee, Hogeschool, an institution for higher education of professional level, and VOKA Oost-Vlaanderen, a chamber of commerce, with that particular aim. Participants came from institutions of higher education, companies and NGOs. The delegates were especially attracted by the format of the summer school, i.e. people coming from diverse backgrounds working together on a sustainable challenge formulated by SMEs.
