This paper aims to explore the extent to which Globally Responsible Humanism (GRH) is embedded in the management education offered by public business schools in Egypt. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 24 management educators working at three public business schools. The findings show an absence of socio-cultural, ethical, and eco-political themes in their courses and research activities. Moreover, only five of our respondents highlight a superficial embedding of the definitions of social responsibility, sustainability, environmental awareness, and ethics in economics, accounting, and management courses.
