ONE OR SEVERAL GREEN BUSINESSES?

The objective of the “One or several Green Businesses?” module is to bring the student to produce a reflection on the different forms that green business can take for a company. During the training, the student will be led to address:

• The assessment of the existing situation: What are other companies doing to be responsible? An overview of what is behind the terms SD and green business today, and a reflexion about personal expectations towards green businesses
• How to be more responsible? Based on a real case study, the student will try to solve the impossible equation of company sustainability – SD actions. What is the compromise between ideal and achievable? 

Students will be able to:

• Decipher the information related to green business
• Identify the criteria for the implementation of SD / green business
• Establish an evaluation grid of the SD / green business strategy of a company
• Carry out an audit and determine practical areas of improvement in relation to these criteria

The content of the course consists of two units:

1. Assessment of the existing situation – acquiring the knowledge and defining own criteria to differentiate green business from greenwashing business
2. How to have a real green business? – using knowledge to advise an existing company

Timetable:

Synchronous lectures will be delivered on a few Friday morning and they will be recorded. Approximate work load is 4 hours per week – 36 hours in total.
