13.3.5

SDG 13.3.5

  1. The collaboration project between the The Longchen Sustainable Development and Environmental Protection Foundation and National Taiwan Ocean University.財團法人榮成永續發展環保基金會與國立臺灣海洋大學合作案

The Longchen Sustainable Development and Environmental Protection Foundation (hereinafter referred to as Longchen P&P) aims to fulfill its corporate social responsibility by leveraging the marine research expertise of our university to promote various industry-academia collaboration projects. These efforts seek to achieve the goals of marine environmental protection and sustainable development.

Sustainability is not achieved overnight; rather, it is a process of continuous improvement and energy accumulation, gradually expanding the application of sustainable concepts. Based on this principle, each phase of this collaboration spans two years, and the partnership has now entered its third phase. Longchen P&P has invested nearly NT$20 million dollars, and the principal investigator has made significant contributions in academia, public education, and governmental support, yielding fruitful results across these areas.

Sustainable Impact: aligns with SDG13.3.5 by fostering environmental education and climate adaptation through NGO collaboration. This partnership focuses on marine environmental protection and sustainable development, integrating academic expertise and public education to raise awareness about sustainability. By collaborating with an NGO like Longchen P&P, the project promotes climate adaptation strategies and fosters long-term environmental stewardship. The partnership’s multi-phase approach highlights continuous improvement in sustainable practices, contributing to both environmental protection and public awareness of climate issues.

  1. The 15th Annual Conference on Development StudiesSustainability: Climate Action, Just Transition and the Future of the Ocean第十五屆發展研究年會「永續:氣候行動、公正轉型與海洋的未來」國際學術研討會

The 15th Development Research Annual Conference, jointly organized by our center and the Taiwan Development Research Association, is titled “Sustainability: Climate Action, Just Transition, and the Future of the Ocean.” This international academic seminar attracted over 300 participants from various sectors including academia, government, and industry, both domestically and internationally.

The conference covered important topics such as social science-driven net-zero transitions, sustainable ocean use, cultural heritage preservation in port cities, and climate action. It featured three exciting keynote speeches:

Dr. Lin Min-tsong, Vice Chair of the National Science and Technology Council, delivered a keynote titled “From Ragnarok to Sustainable Value: Social Science-Driven Net-Zero Transition,” exploring the core values of technological development and the foundations of basic research and independent innovation technologies.

Professor Jiang Guoping, Convenor of the Taiwan Ocean Alliance and distinguished professor at the university, spoke on “Decoding the Tears of Mermaids: The Motivation Behind Blue Tears Research and University Social Responsibility,” sharing valuable experiences of university and local government collaboration in promoting scientific and humanistic development.

Research Fellow Leng Zegang from the Academia Sinica presented “Multilateral Governance under Geopolitics: A Case Study of Arctic Research,” examining the ongoing changes and challenges in Arctic governance and offering insights for political scholars.

The conference also featured an international forum, inviting scholars from Italy, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, and other countries to discuss sustainable ocean use, including strategies for fishing villages, observation, and urban regeneration. Additionally, there were two book launches:

“SDG14’s Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division: Sustainability Issues and Practices in Marine Ecology,” organized by Vice President Li Ming-an and edited by Professor Hsieh Yuling from the Center for General Education, with contributions from professors in various departments.

“The Fugue of Development: A Festschrift for Professor Wang Zhenhuan,” honoring Professor Wang Zhenhuan's contributions in the field of development research.

This conference, part of the 70th anniversary series of our institution, was a collaborative effort involving the Center for Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development, the Student Affairs Office, the Bachelor’s Program in Marine Cultural and Creative Design, the Bachelor’s Program in Marine Tourism Management, the Graduate Institute of Education, the Department of Environmental Biology and Fisheries Science, and the Smart Shipping Research Center. It aimed to serve as an academic platform for interdisciplinary, interdepartmental, and international cooperation, setting a new benchmark for cross-domain research in sustainable development.

President Hsu Tai-wen affirmed the conference’s success and emphasized Taiwan's outstanding achievements in areas such as social reform, human rights, COVID-19 pandemic prevention, green energy, marine technology, climate change, and the practice of university social responsibility as exemplifying “Taiwan Experience 3.0.”

The annual conference successfully provided a platform for exchange with 24 sessions and 80 paper presentations, allowing scholars, policymakers, and industry professionals from various fields to discuss sustainable development strategies and future directions, and laying a solid foundation for future cooperation and exchange.

Sustainable Impact: aligns with SDG13.3.5 by fostering collaboration with NGOs and international partners to promote climate adaptation and sustainability.
