Sammanfattning
The article describes how a business school wants to contribute to creating
sustainability, not only through research, but also by reforming its education.
The students at Stockholm School of Economics now learns what global
challenges we all face and their risks, but also what opportunities there are
and how they themselves can contribute to achieving the Sustainable Development
Goals. During the first four semesters, they study, alongside other
courses, a track called ”Global Challenges”, whereas one semester is dedicated
to human sustainability. In addition to sustain themselves, they need
to be able to create sustainable organizations, but also to think in terms of
meaningfulness - and to let go of their egos, in favor of the ecosystem.
