As sustainable development increasingly becomes a key requirement for businesses, policymaking, and the global economy, greater emphasis is being placed on equipping students with interdisciplinary thinking, adaptability, and the ability to work effectively in multicultural environments. With the aim of connecting business knowledge with environmental and legal issues in the context of globalization, the Airlangga Global Program on Sustainable Business and Environmental Law 2026 provided UEH students with an international academic environment where they had the opportunity to learn, gain practical experiences, and connect with peers from around the world at Universitas Airlangga, Indonesia.
The Airlangga Global Program on Sustainable Business and Environmental Law 2026 is an international academic program organized by Universitas Airlangga (UNAIR), Indonesia, combining online learning activities with an in-person academic experience in Surabaya from August 10 to 14, 2026. The program focused on interdisciplinary topics, including sustainable business, ESG, environmental governance, international trade, human rights, and environmental law, providing students with opportunities to explore global issues from diverse perspectives. As part of the international collaboration between UEH and UNAIR, 22 UEH students from various academic units and disciplines participated in the program, learning, exchanging ideas, and engaging with peers in an international environment.

As part of the program, students engaged in academic sessions on sustainable development, environmental law, international trade, ESG, and the relationship between businesses and human rights. Through lectures, discussions, and case studies, students had the opportunity to connect their academic knowledge with practical challenges facing businesses and the global economy. In addition, the visit to the Center for Sustainable Governance and Strategy (CSGS) provided students with practical insights into ESG, sustainable governance, and sustainability reporting frameworks. This experience enabled them to gain a clearer understanding of the interconnectedness between environmental and social responsibility, corporate governance, and business value.

UEH Students Engage and Learn with International Peers
During the Program Beyond academic activities, the program also featured a series of cultural exchange activities and experiential learning opportunities in Surabaya. UEH students had the opportunity to explore the local culture, history, and way of life while engaging in cultural exchange activities with students from different countries. These experiences contributed to fostering intercultural understanding, strengthening students’ communication and collaboration skills in multicultural environments, and expanding their international networks.

The multicultural learning environment also encouraged students to actively share their perspectives, embrace differences, and build meaningful connections that extend beyond the program. These valuable experiences contributed to developing the competencies students need to thrive in an increasingly interconnected global environment.
