Sustainability and Management Education in China and India: Enabling a Global Green Economic Transition

Abstract

There has been an active international academic engagement and scholarship in exploring the important links between sustainability and management education. However, this active engagement and scholarship appears to be concentrated in business schools and management education institutions in North America and the European Union. We argue in this article that this gap in our understanding of sustainability management education in China and India is likely to hamper the important transition towards a greener economy on the global level. In order to examine current and future trends in sustainability management education in China and India and how those trends impact the important transition towards a greener global economy, we will highlight the key global sustainability and management education trends and will analyse how sustainability and management education can best be linked in these two respective countries.
