EBBF Podcast Episode 14: What Educational Governance Can Build Ethical Leaders?

September 3, 2020, in Audio > Podcasts, by

The Ethical Business Building the Future organization, otherwise known as EBBF, is a not-for-profit that aims to promote moral and spiritual wisdom and principles found in the teachings of the Baha’i Faith and the great religious traditions of the world, such as the principles of justice, respect, trustworthiness, integrity and unity.

#discoveringhow is EBBF’s podcast series where you can hear personal experiences and insights from EBBF members — each episode offers you stepping stones, fresh ideas, and the personal learnings of people who believe that ethical business can and should build the future.

How can education prepare society’s change agents of the future? How can educational institutions exemplify governance with high ethical principles? 
We hear about how a school in post-war Bosnia transformed itself from conflict to collaboration. But first, we hear from Vivek Nair, the director of the School of the Nations in Macau. There students fulfill the dual purpose of academic accomplishment and service to their communities and “this contributes greatly to their preparation as ethical leaders and collaborators”.
