Record of Our Activities

On October 23rd, Yuta Ando, a graduate student of Kyoto University, was invited to give a special lecture on SDGs. “In what field are no SGDs set?” he asked, and the students answered, ”Religion.”  In such a casual exchange, they got a deeper understanding of SDGs.  After the session, they asked a lot of questions about SDGs and studies in universities individually.

(Voices from the Participants)

・I enjoyed a totally new approach to the understanding of SDGs.  Usually, in class, we started with the question of what we can do to achieve SDGs.  I expected that this lesson would go in the same way, but it was very different.  We thought of a new SDG or welcomed the criticism of what we usually praised.

・I have been thinking about becoming a researcher just because I like science.  I have never considered the relation between a job as a researcher and global perspectives such as SDGs. But after listening to this lecture, I can connect the two easily. I think the procedure of increasing knowledge to understand what is happening in the world by thinking logically is applicable in learning in science.  Finding something in common between different fields is truly important.
