The Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) Business for Peace Forum 2016, organized by the PRME Working Group on Business for Peace, will bring together academics, practitioners, civil society, international organizations and NGOs to discuss cutting-edge academic research on how business can advance peace and highlight areas where further research must be pursued.

This event is hosted by the School of Business Administration and the focus of this year's forum will be on peacebuilding and conflict-sensitive due diligence in alignment with SDG 16.

Objectives:

• Highlight cutting-edge academic research and practical experience on the peacebuilding potential of private sector actions and due diligence mechanisms
• Explore innovative multi-stakeholder partnership opportunities for peace
• Inspire and expand the practice of the business for peace community to include academic and "research practitioner" thought leaders
