Uniting for Impact: Showcasing Social Responsibility Initiatives at Taiwan Universities
SDGs
During the past six years, the University Social Responsibility (USR) Program has reached many remarkable milestones. The first stop of the “2023 Exhibition of Engaged Scholarship” was in Northern Taiwan. Organized by the National Taiwan University System and five universities, the exhibition features over 60 different booths, which beautifully illustrated the myriad facets of social responsibility initiatives across academia.
Dedicated to "Working Together for Sustainability," the event team meticulously curated the exhibition in paperless, digital fashion. Visitors could effortlessly access information through a cloud-based folder, register for workshops online, and engage in interactive games via mobile apps, all in keeping with the sustainable development goals of university social responsibility.
The exhibition not only showcased the collective results of the USR program but also carried profound educational implications. Visitors had the opportunity to gain in-depth insights into the distinctive features of each action plan and sustainability goal through the on-site exhibits and detailed orientations provided by the USR partners. This immersive experience heightened the participants’ awareness of social responsibility and inspired more to participate.
For newcomers, the exhibition served as a unique platform where over 30 schools converged to convey a renewed meaning of "applying what was learned." Simultaneously, it shed light on the pressing social issues that each university is committed to addressing, facilitating students in making well-informed decisions in their future academic journeys.
