Operation of Exhibitions, Seminars, and Hands-on Programs
Expanding Carbon Neutrality Practices with the Local Community

Soonchunhyang University has launched the "Carbon Neutral Green Campus Festival," focusing on student-led eco-friendly exhibitions and hands-on programs, to promote a culture of carbon neutrality in collaboration with the local community.

The Carbon Neutrality Activation Support Center of the Soonchunhyang University RISE Project Group announced on December 4 that it is hosting the "Carbon Neutral Green Campus Festival (The Third Code)" on campus from December 2 to December 5, offering a variety of exhibitions, seminars, and experiential programs.

This event was organized to share the outcomes of the university's carbon neutrality education and experiential projects pursued this year and to build a sustainable university ecosystem.

During the festival, student-driven content is being showcased on campus.

Students from the Department of Architecture installed sculptures made from eco-friendly materials to visually express ideas for reducing carbon emissions, while the Department of Convergence Design attracted attention by exhibiting sustainable design products and UX-based works.

Facilities such as reusable cup return machines and the Carbon Neutrality Park booth were also operated, allowing participants to experience carbon reduction practices firsthand in their daily lives.

At the open seminar held during the event, experts, representatives from related local organizations, and university members attended to discuss the direction of carbon neutrality policies and implementation strategies.

The seminar was held to emphasize the need to strengthen cooperation between the university and the local community and to raise awareness of carbon neutrality.

Lee Taehee, Director of the Carbon Neutrality Activation Support Center, stated, "It is highly meaningful that the exhibitions and experiential programs created by students were shared with the local community," adding, "We will take the lead in expanding practice-oriented carbon neutrality education to build a sustainable campus and regional ecosystem."

Meanwhile, Soonchunhyang University plans to further strengthen its training of carbon neutrality talent and practice-centered education following this festival.
