It aims to cultivate global citizenship and address pressing global issues among students from 60 universities across the Pacific Rim. Co-designed by six core-partner universities, including Kyushu University, in collaboration with the United Nations, this program builds global knowledge and literacy by focusing on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Students engage in teams, tackle global challenges, and propose social innovation solutions. Unique local case studies deepen SDG understanding. In 2024, the program&#8217;s theme is &#8216;Shaping the Future of Health &#038; Wellbeing,&#8217; exploring various dimensions of wellbeing. By drawing on diverse disciplines, it seeks to empower students to contribute to resilient global communities.\r\n\r\nFor further details, please refer to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isc.kyushu-u.ac.jp\/intlweb\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Application-Guideline_APRU-SDG-Education-for-Global-Citizenship_English_QR\u7528.pdf\" class=\"link_txt\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the application guideline (For KU students)<\/a> and apply via <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/SDG4GCKYUSHU\" class=\"link_txt\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">KU Online Appication Form<\/a> by <em class=\"txt_bold\">February 26, 2024<\/em>.
