In the past decade, the theme of sustainability has transitioned from a peripheral topic to a central element of business education, reflected in changes to international business school accreditation standards. More than 850 Schools globally have become signatories of the UN-sponsored initiative PRME, whose mission is to 'transform management education and develop the responsible decision-makers of tomorrow to advance sustainable development’, but what difference does this actually make to what Schools teach and how they operate? This case study examines Lancaster University Management School’s progress since becoming a signatory of PRME in 2019 to evaluate its impact on the School.
