Social Innovation Competition
Universities can be catalysts in creating connectivity among members of society, serving as knowledge platforms to address complex challenges in the social, economic, political, environmental, and other value systems of our time. Chulalongkorn University conducts various engagement programs as part of such effort. Engaging Our Future!—Innovation Challenges for Sustainable Society was a global engagement program launched by Chulalongkorn University in partnership with SDGx, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and the Yunus Foundation that encouraged university students from around the globe to work together in a team spirit towards SDGs. The program enabled student social innovators to learn about the SDGs at deeper level via engaging with invited experts and experienced/committed practitioners of social innovation through webinar and mentorship.
