In addition to the challenges of the pandemic during the past two years, the world is experiencing increasing conflicts, violence, and injustice. A sense of solidarity in the face of these challenges has brought citizens from all continents closer together to support each other and work toward better futures. It is in this context, Chulalongkorn University launched APRU SDG Education for Global Citizenship program, an intercultural, transdisciplinary and interactive program that fosters global citizenship among students from 60 universities across the Pacific Rim. Co-designed by six core-partner universities in collaboration with the United Nations, the program aims to build knowledge of global issues and global literacy among students. This is achieved through learning about SDGs, exploring in-depth some of the world’s biggest challenges, and proposing solutions using a framework for collaborative development of social innovation prototypes. The program places critical importance in introducing locally embedded unique case studies among the network members to help students develop a broad array of perspectives and deepen understandings of the SDGs. Joined by experienced multidisciplinary scholars and practitioners, the panel discusses values and benefits of co-designing the program, that would support sustainable futures via co-creating knowledge. It will also discuss challenges and opportunities of such partnership programs. Learning Objectives: • Co-create knowledge for sustainability via multi-stakeholder engagements • Foster global citizenship via SDG education • Value of co-designing programs with partners Target Audience: • SDG education • Global citizenship • Social innovation • Mentorship program • Experiential learning Target Audience Level: Intermediate, Advanced
