Introduction

Show students how to lead sustainable value chains

Sustainability is more than a strategy. It is a business imperative. Yet few students understand how to balance People, Planet, and Prosperity in real operational decisions.

In this simulation, students take on executive roles at a chocolate milk manufacturer under pressure to become truly sustainable. They define sustainability targets, prioritize actions, and make trade-offs across the value chain, from sourcing and production to sales and partnerships.

This hands-on experience connects sustainability to every function. Students learn to avoid greenwashing, improve business performance, and contribute to meaningful impact across 13 of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
