授業の概要と目的(何を学ぶか)Outline and objectives
This course offers students opportunities to acquire knowledge and skill to analyze the role of businesses to contribute to global sustainability. There is growing expectation for businesses to play more important roles to solve global problems such as climate change, poverty and various forms of inequalities as governments alone cannot solve these problems anymore. Businesses are uniquely positioned to work with their stakeholders to reduce negative impact across their value chains and deliver high-impact business solutions to the challenging sustainability issues. Through this course, students will learn various efforts of global companies on sustainability, how they are creating shared value (CSV) and realizing sustained growth.
