The aim of the research paper is to
understand the role of teachers in business schools in
enforcing sustainability practices in their respective
schools with concentration on curriculum design,
teaching in the classrooms and providing support and
encouragement to their students to actively make
sustainability a part in their day-to-day activities since
they will graduate from schools to join societies. There
are a lot of campaigns and advocacy by the international
community and governments like the USA, UK, and the
EU with respect to sustainability and its practices, the
problem is whether, these advocacies could translate into
equal levels of acceptance by the faculty members and
reflect in student’s enrollment, addressing this dilemma
could help solve sustainability challenges in societies and
industries as well. The researcher seeks to make clarity
on the need for proper collaboration on curriculum
designs, and full commitment by faculty members in
business schools on sustainability. In lieu of this, clear
suggestions and recommendations are presented at the
conclusion part based on a case study analysis of
Australian universities. The stakes of sustainability in
UK universities were also taken into consideration in a
report by the People and Planet Universities League. It is
therefore recommended that; all stakeholders should
accept, collaborate, and encourage students to enroll in
studying programs relating to sustainability and its
practices in building a better society for the benefit of
the majority and save our planet.
