Integrating Sustainability into Business Education: A Workshop for Canadian Business Faculty was held on May 4th, 2010, at the University of Guelph Arboretum. The event was hosted by Dr. Elizabeth Kurucz of the University of Guelph and Dr. Barry Colbert of Wilfrid Laurier University and facilitated by Dr. Asaf Zohar of Trent University as part of an inter-university research initiative on business school interaction with stakeholders on sustainability issues. The purpose of this event was to provide a forum for academics in business schools across the country to dialogue with their peers about the opportunities to advance sustainability focused education in the design and delivery of elective and core courses in the curriculum. A total of 80 participants (including faculty, administrators, industry representatives, and students) gathered from 16 different universities and colleges to discuss the complex global issues that our business students will increasingly face in their personal and professional lives. Outcomes of the day are summarized in this report.
