Supported by the United Nations Global Compact, the Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) provide a framework for academic institutions to advance corporate responsibility through the incorporation of universal values into curricula and research. The PRME have been developed by an international task force consisting of 60 deans, university presidents and official representatives of  leading business schools. Officially launched at the 2007 Global Compact Leaders Summit in Geneva, the PRME are now in the implementation phase.

This All-Academy Workshop will bring together a variety of people from different institutions who have adopted or are considering adopting the PRME, and from a range of disciplinary backgrounds. The  objectives of the workshop are twofold.

• Identify and share the questions that have emerged in the early phases of adopting and beginning to implement the PRME, as well as those answers concerning PRME implementation we already have.Early  adopters will be invited to present their experiences and best  practices; sharing these experience with others who have just adopted or are considering adopting PRME, facilitating a sharing of  experiences and best practices regarding responsible management education. 
• Considering that every answer is only as good as the questions we ask, the PDW also wants participants to discuss what questions are  meaningful when implementing the PRME and which of these questions  have not been asked yet.
