The event aims to bring together business and academia, international organizations and civil society to gather and develop preliminary recommendations, taking into account the countries' unique geographic and cultural links and common interests in climate change mitigation and adaptation, on the future of responsible business and management education for consideration by national governments in the region.
These will include:
1. Recommendations for governments, ministries and higher education institutions to adopt ambitious climate commitments in their policies, strategies and curricula.
2. Recommendations for business on how higher education and the private sector can work together to accelerate the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and take bold climate action (e.g. through applied research projects).
3. Recommendations from business students and higher education organisations on what the next generation of business leaders need and want in terms of green skills and green jobs. This section will also build on the findings of the HESI Student Action Group event during the High Level Political Forum.
