🌍 What Is the Positive Impact Rating (PIR)?

The PIR is an international rating system governed by a Swiss non-profit association and supported by global organizations including WWF, Oxfam International, and UN Global Compact Switzerland. It is funded by VIVA Idea and the Institute for Business Sustainability (IBS) and aims to assess business schools based on their societal and environmental contributions, not just academic performance.
