IBE Student Essay Competition
The IBE Student Essay Competition in Business Ethics has run for seven years, in association with the UK chapter of the European Business Ethics Network (EBEN), a network of academics teaching business ethics.
Its aim has been to encourage the teaching of business ethics in UK Business Schools and similar teaching departments.
In 2009, the Postgraduate category was won by Rosie Sjoren from from ICCSR, Nottingham University Business School for her paper on “Vednanta and the Dongria Koddh: Human Rights and Corporate Wrongs”
The winner of the Undergraduate category was Amanda Kane of ICCSR, Nottingham University Business School for her paper on “Should executives be paid for apparent failure?”
In 2010 and each year until the Olympics in 2012 the IBE has launched a new student essay award in partnership with the International Pierre de Coubertin Committee (CIPC) focussing on Ethics, Business and Sport. This annual competition aiming to promote research on how the Olympic ideals of fairness, integrity and openness can help businesses balance commercial success with their social responsibilities.
