Marseille, Global Responsibility, now

“Global Responsibility, now ” is organized from 14-18 May 2018, by Kedge Business School in collaboration with the Globally Responsible Leadership Initiative (GRLI) and the Conférence des Grandes Ecoles (CGE) in Marseille, France. During this week, networks and initiatives from around the globe – local student organizations, regional interest groups, international partnerships and UN-level initiatives – will convene to move towards accelerating systemic impact.

For many years, the responsibility of higher education & learning institutions for building a sustainable world has been highlighted. All over the world, faculty, administrators, learning facilitators and students have developed initiatives at local, regional and international levels to help transform society, business and education. These initiatives have generated positive energy and goodwill, inspired further actions and innovations and led to undeniable progress. However the collective impact of these initiatives still somehow falls short of the deep transformation required at individual and collective level to make the change sustainable.

Networks and initiatives from around the globe, with representation at various levels – local student organisations, regional interest groups, international partnerships and UN-level initiatives – will convene 14-18 May and move towards accelerating systemic impact. The event will also work to strengthen and accelerate the global partnership for sustainable development with a specific emphasis on SDG 17.

The Sulitest Conference (15th May) is one of the highlights scheduled during the first days of the event. It’s focus is to gather for the first time all major players of the Sulitest community: university full players, partners, companies, regional chapters (RNEC), our advisory board and administrative council.
