We are happy to announce the publication of the “Academia Report on Social Business 2020 - No Going Back”. This year’s starring contributors include Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Prof. Muhammad Yunus, Jeffrey Sachs (world-renowned economist and Professor at Columbia University), Andrea Jung (CEO of Grameen America and Board Member of Apple), Ron Garan (decorated NASA astronaut) and Michael Møller (former Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations) amongst others. We speak about a world in which all businesses are social businesses, how to make the next ten years a decade of positive impact, and the role of young people and established institutions such as the United Nations in making this happen.
With interviews and articles, the report reflects on aspects of the academic landscape that can and should be adapted in order to emphasize the role of doing business in a more social and sustainable way. Published by Yunus Centre, Yunus + You - the YY Foundation, and edited by Studio Nima, it seeks to promote the integration of social business into mainstream education by illustrating how universities across the globe have developed and implemented innovative research and study programs.
