Practice-based collaboration takes shape through global networks and extracurricular education programs
On May 29, the Global 토토사이트 지분 Innovation Foundation at Hanyang University, led by Shin Hyun-sang, signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with MYSC (My 토토사이트 지분 Company, CEO Kim Jung-tae) at HIT Hall on the Seoul Campus to foster young changemakers and build a robust 토토사이트 지분 innovation ecosystem.
This MOU aims to co-develop and operate practice-oriented education programs that generate social value by leveraging both institutions’ expertise and networks, while also contributing to a sustainable future society through connections with global social innovation networks.
The two organizations have agreed to collaborate closely in the following areas: ▲ co-development and operation of extracurricular education programs for youth ▲ international cooperation through networks such as Ashoka, AVPN, and EoM ▲ and the development of practice-based programs including design thinking workshops and mentoring.
More than just an educational partnership, the MOU is expected to evolve into a model that empowers youth-led social innovation. In fact, the two parties began co-hosting the “Sustainable ESG Leader Program 3.0 (1st cohort)” in May, prior to the signing. They are also jointly conducting a regional project titled “Design Thinking for Sustainable Communities: Living Lab for nearby Commercial District,” which guides students to propose co-prosperity solutions for local communities through design thinking and gain hands-on experience in the process.
Shin Hyun-sang, Head of the Global Social Innovation Foundation, stated, “This agreement aligns with Hanyang University’s vision of nurturing talent through a foundation of social innovation,” and added, “We will actively collaborate to empower students to drive meaningful change through practice-centered programs.”
Lee Ye-ji, CIO of MYSC, remarked, “We’re excited to partner with Hanyang University in our shared mission of nurturing young changemakers,” and expressed hope that the collaboration will help build a sustainable impact ecosystem.
Hanyang University’s Global Social Innovation Foundation leads efforts to realize social value by integrating education, research, and field-based initiatives. The university is the only Ashoka U Changemaker Campus in Asia and actively participates in international networks such as the Talloires Network and AVPN. Since 2018, it has also partnered with Stanford University to publish the Korean edition of the Stanford 토토사이트 지분 Innovation Review (SSIR).
