Moving Toward Socially and Environmentally Responsible Management Education—A Case Study of Mumbai

Abstract

Educational institutions have a vital role to play shaping the future of our environment. Education provides opportunities for students to become environmentally conscious citizens besides being educated. In this study, an attempt has been made to study the perception of management students and teachers in the city of Mumbai, India, to determine their awareness and sensitivity toward environmental issues and what they can do to help the cause. Also, as a solution, use of emerging technologies such as Learning Management Systems is being suggested to save paper and conserve environment. The study would be a step to move toward Green Education.
