Accton Joined Hands with Social Enterprise to Promote Environmental Sustainability Education

Accton partnered with social enterprise Agriforward and cooperated with the Career Development Center of National Tsing Hua University to organize a seminar on environmental sustainability innovation trends and design thinking workshops on campus in 2022. It is hoped that through education, the concept of sustainable development will take root on the campus.

During the lecture, Tang Feng, Minister without Portfolio of the Executive Yuan, was invited to share experiences in sustainable development in Taiwan from the perspective of government departments, and how young people can participate in government-related sustainable development actions. Chang Yun-Tsui, the representative of the non-profit organization Oranje Express, was also invited to share the development and thinking of the Netherlands in the field of sustainability from a non-governmental perspective. Nearly 100 students and the general public were fascinated to participate in this event.

The lecture was immediately followed by a three-day "Environmental Sustainability Design Sprint Workshop," which invited three senior design thinking specialists to serve as lecturers, and two environmental sustainability-related organizations, Taiwan Roadkill Observation Network and Taiwan Environmental Information Association also participated. The two organizations asked the participants to use the design thinking method to propose action plans for the pain points of the organizations, so as to help the non-profit organizations break through their dilemmas.
