Sorsogon State University - Sorsogon City Campus, through its internationalization initiatives, spearheaded a learning session on “Advancing the Sustainable Development Goals through Research, Curriculum, and Community Resilience” on September 10, 2026, at the SorSU Dormtel, featuring Dr. Venkat Bakthavatchaalam, International Visiting Lecturer (IVL) from Cardiff University School of Engineering, as the resource speaker.

The activity engaged Sorsogon City Campus faculty members in a broader discussion on how curriculum, research, community engagement, and classroom-based applications can translate the SDGs into meaningful institutional and societal actions.

Dr. Venkat further highlighted the interconnected social, environmental, and economic dimensions of the SDGs and the significance of an interdisciplinary approach in applying them meaningfully. He underscored the crucial role of educators in equipping students not only with technical competencies but also with sustainability-related skills, critical reflection, and a deeper understanding of how they can address societal challenges, including social justice, conflict, marine pollution, rising sea levels, ocean acidification, misinformation, and concerns associated with artificial intelligence’s reliance on available data.

The morning session centered on advancing the SDGs through curriculum, while the afternoon event focused on research and community resilience, followed by an open forum.

The activity underscores SorSU’s sustained efforts to align quality education, research, international collaboration, and community-responsive initiatives with the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. (SorSU PIO)
