Has anybody incorporated poverty alleviation in business courses?

04 April 2018 1 8K Report

I would like to collaborate with other business academics who have integrally incorporated poverty alleviation in their business courses. I teach a unit titled "poverty alleviation and Profitability" at a Masters level and it would be good share experiences.

Good to hear about. I have always felt the ethical considerations in businesses to be about doing self no irredeemable harm by ignoring the laws and client safety, but saving them money? Gob-smacking! Should be more philanthropy in business! Wishing you success.
