Abstract
This article delves into the pivotal role that educational institutions play in shaping the future leaders of the tourism and hospitality industry. By investigating how these institutions can contribute to the development of professionals who prioritize social responsibility, ethical decision-making, and sustainable practices, we explore the symbiotic relationship between education and the cultivation of responsible leaders. Through a comprehensive examination of curriculum design, experiential learning, and industry partnerships, we aim to shed light on how education serves as a transformative force in promoting socially responsible tourism management.
