This workshop aims to engage educators in an active discussion and collaborative exploration of the ethical dimensions surrounding corporate political activity (CPA) and lobbying. Participants will critically reflect on how businesses influence political systems, the ethical implications of corporate lobbying, and exchange and develop pedagogical strategies to address these topics in the classroom. Through debate, group work, and knowledge exchange, the workshop will foster a deeper understanding of the intersection between business ethics and political involvement.
