Description of our collaboration proposal

In early 2019, a group of Jesuit business education leaders from around the world met, at the invitation of the International Association of Jesuit Universities (IAJU), to consider how Jesuit business education could be renewed so as to contribute to the creation of a just social order in which all can flourish. Inspired by Pope Francis’ encyclical, “Laudato Si’,” and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, and listening to the voices of concerned students, faculty and a host of thought leaders, this task force prepared a white paper titled, “An Inspirational Paradigm for Jesuit Business Education.” This document identifies some of the deeper hungers or desires that drive and inspire the idealism of students in Jesuit Business Schools. The next step is renewing business curricula at both the undergraduate and graduate level. The vision of this virtual conference is to motivate us to work together towards renewing business education so that it is “firmly based upon an ethical framework that emphasizes the fundamental questions of the dignity and the potential of the individual, the centrality of the common good, and the importance of social networks that affirm and support human flourishing.”
