ABSTRACT
An important learning goal for business school students is to see that our world is interconnected, and how everyone can be proactive in supporting a large global challenge, the UN Sustainable Development Goals. This chapter describes a two-step initiative to engage students in action using experiential learning.With the title “Millennials as Change Makers Supporting SDGs,” Rimanoczy facilitated a session which was an eye-opener for college students who realized that they could become change-makers and that they could influence others. As a result of this session, the students made several commitments to change their attitudes and habits, and to engage in change-maker initiatives. On their own they posted their commitments on their social media to maximize influence over even more people. In the second step, the college school students designed an interactive online Zoom workshop aimed at high school students in Jakarta. Replicating the design they had experienced themselves, they organized and conducted interactive sessions for 260 high school students. The experience was simple to design and implement, and helpful in promoting a mindset of sustainability, and creating cascading change.
