KROK Business School was recognized for its social impact and sustainability achievements when the Positive Impact Rating (PIR) results were launched today at the UN PRME Global Forum. KROK Business School was one of 77 business schools from 30 countries worldwide that took part in the rating this year and achieved Level 3, making it a Progressing school within the PIR.
The PIR is a rating conducted by students and for students. For the third time, students worldwide assessed their business schools on how they perceive their positive impact in the world. The positive impact of business schools goes beyond their contribution to business and the economy; it addresses the need for their positive impact for society.
Students assessed how KROK Business School and KROK University addresses societal and sustainable challenges and prepares its students to be responsible business leaders. The data collection in KROK Business School was organized and led by the member of Staff-Student Committee, who distributed the PIR survey across campus to their fellow students. This year more than 200 students responded to the survey.
Participating in the PIR demonstrates the value KROK Business School and KROK University gives to student feedback and voice.
The PIR was created by business school experts together with global NGOs - WWF, Oxfam, and UN Global Compact. International student associations oikos, AIESEC, and Net Impact partner with PIR, supported by VIVA Idea (Costa Rica), The Institute for Business Sustainability Foundation & Fehr Advice, both from Switzerland.
