Abstract

The importance of sustainability and entrepreneurship education as a way of developing a country and its particular value in enabling economic redesign and reconstruction processes through an entrepreneurial mindset is highlighted in this study. The world economies are facing significant challenges as they try to support the transition towards more sustainable economic and business models. However, wars and enhanced political instability and conflict can severely affect the transition process. Therefore, examining the role of business education and, more specifically, the role of business schools in integrating and supporting the development of skills and competencies that align with our contemporary society and the needs of creative thinking to help offering alternatives that support reconstructing the socio-economic and environmental systems of countries’ facing the severe effects of wars and ongoing violent conflicts is needed. To provide practical recommendations to help on the economic recovery and reconstruction process of countries, the educational sector is identified as a critical player. This study considers the case of Ukraine where we argue on the need to facilitate and promote educational cooperations and collaborations that help the country to reconsider its future business and economic model.
