Advancing Responsible Business Education in Business and Economics Schools Curricula in Viet Nam

Responsible business and human rights have been increasingly introduced into curricula of business schools globally. However, there is currently no dedicated course on responsible business and management in Viet Nam. Recognizing the need to develop such curriculum, the National Economics University of Vietnam (NEU) and United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Viet Nam, with the support from the Government of Sweden, are developing a learning journey and training materials on responsible business in NEU’s undergraduate and graduate business school curricula.

The 2-day Workshop on “Advancing Responsible Business Education in Business Schools in Viet Nam” is a part of this activity. The workshop aims to introduce and advance the awareness on responsible business, as well as introducing the real-life practices in teaching and integrating this content into university curricula worldwide. The target audience of this workshop is professors and lecturers at universities with business courses in Viet Nam.

Prof. Dorothée Baumann-Pauly is one of the experts speaking during the second day of this event, on “Integrating Responsible Business into Business School curricula in Viet Nam”.
