Tsing Hua College：

The university engages in international collaboration and research to identify, compare, and develop best practices for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Key initiatives include:

• Conducting joint research projects with partner universities on climate action, net-zero transitions, and education for sustainability, sharing policy experiences and campus implementation models across countries;
• Participating in global sustainability networks such as the ASEAN University Network on SDGs and the International Sustainable Campus Network (ISCN) to exchange approaches on sustainable governance and community engagement;
• Contributing to international publications and workshops that analyze sustainability outcomes and propose policy recommendations, helping establish global best practice frameworks for SDG implementation.

Through these collaborations, the university strengthens its global academic partnerships and contributes to advancing international best practices in sustainability and education.

Office of Global Affairs, OGA：

NTHU continuously reviews and updates its international and sustainability strategies, emphasizing university-wide participation and cross-unit collaboration to incorporate diverse perspectives and experiences. These efforts help ensure that institutional policies remain aligned with international best practices and continue to advance sustainable development.

Yes. NTHU reviews the international strategy and continually communicates with all the staff. For example, we held the training or meeting to confirm the wish-list of Academic units to make sure the policy can proceed.

College of Life Sciences and Medicine：

The purpose of this seminar is to facilitate deep collaboration in the field of biomedical research between Osaka University and the College of Life Sciences at National Tsing Hua University. Over the past decade, researchers in the biomedical field from both institutions have participated in over ten bilateral academic exchanges. Building upon this excellent foundation of communication, a collaboration was established to launch a dual-degree doctoral program. This program offers graduate students from Taiwan and Japan the opportunity to earn a doctoral degree by conducting research in both countries. The collaboration aims to cultivate talents in the field of life medicine. Currently, two Taiwanese graduate students have successfully completed the dual-degree doctoral program offered by NTHU and Osaka University.

College of Engineering：

The international collaboration projects at the Institute of NanoEngineering and Microsystems (NEMS) have seen significant advancement in both funding and research capabilities compared to the past. Partner countries include Japan, the United States, Germany, Sweden, Israel, Norway, Finland, France, and Belgium. Among these, the Sweden–Taiwan bilateral project led by NEMS is the only collaboration focused on the micro- and nanotechnology field, with the partner institution being the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Sweden.

Institute of Biomedical Engineering in NTHU and the University of British Columbia jointly developed anticancer drugs and sublingual formulations for diabetes treatment, advancing innovative healthcare for Good Health and Well-being through international collaboration.

College of Technology Management：

Our institute has long participated in conferences related to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and has established sustained collaborations with non-governmental observer organizations such as the International Climate Dialogue (ICD) and the Perspectives Climate Group. These collaborations include bilateral workshops, participation in side events of the UNFCCC, and invited presentations at the Eurasia Forum hosted by our institute.

The International Climate Dialogue (ICD) is an international think tank led by Professor Axel Michaelowa of the University of Zurich, Switzerland. It brings together academic and research organizations engaged in global climate governance—most notably the Perspectives Climate Group—and maintains cooperative partnerships with institutions such as Taiwan’s Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) and National Tsing Hua University (NTHU). Through these collaborations, the ICD leverages its extensive scientific expertise and long-standing international network across governmental and non-governmental organizations to foster evidence-based climate dialogue and cooperation.

▪️On January 17, 2024, Professor Ching-Fu Lin of the ILST was invited to participate in the "Asia International Law Workshop" organized by the Singapore Management University Yong Pung How School of Law. The topic of the workshop is Sustainable Development and International Law. The workshop participants examined how Asian international law responses to global challenges arising from topics like emerging technologies and sustainable development, discussing how, in the current context of trade and investment, Asian law can break away from traditional, Western approaches and normative models, gradually promoting normative evolution and developing its own legal framework.

Center for Arts and Culture：

Organize international conferences and seminars： Invite experts and scholars from different countries to share and discuss how art museums can sustainably pursue the goal of sustainable development in the future through the inheritance of art education.

Office of Alumni Service and Resources Development：

The NTHU Alumni Association and Alumni Center primarily focus on alumni engagement, resource connection, and supporting the university’s development. They have not yet been directly involved in international research collaborations or comparative reviews aimed at developing SDG best practices.

Current international engagement mainly focuses on alumni networking and maintaining relationships with the university rather than SDG-related policy or research collaboration.
