See all tags
NYU Stern School of Business, which has opened world's first human rights centre at a B-School, is keen to learn from faculty in India. NYU Stern School of Business is set to integrate human rights in its MBA curriculum and into the way the business school operates by launching the world's first human rights centre at a business school this year. Some Indian business schools, however, seem to have beaten Stern to this, by broaching the subject through active discussions and graded courses with its students...Posner agrees that there can be no one-sizefits-all approach for teaching human rights…Different components of human rights like freedom of speech, discrimination, harassment at work, security practices and supply chain issues need to be integrated in different courses at business schools, and it could vary from region to region.
