Reclaim, Resist, Reimagine: Sustainability and the Future of Responsible Management Education

Join us at the 13th Responsible Management Education Research (RMER) Conference at Leuphana University of Lüneburg, Germany, on September 2-4, 2026, as we explore critical issues in responsible management education and address global challenges through innovative and sustainable practices.

In this era of rapid change and uncertainty, we must reclaim our values of sustainability and social responsibility, resist the increasing political and societal backlash, and reimagine a future where business, society and nature thrive together.

Through a series of keynote speeches, panel discussions, and research tracks, we will delve into the latest research and best practices in responsible management education, with a special focus on sustainability and innovation.
