Abstract

“Leading University Creating Innovation for Sustainable Future”, the vision of Siam University, reflects our commitment to ensure that all learners acquire necessary mindset, skills, values, and knowledge to become co-creators of a more sustainable futures. The vision has been implemented in a whole institution approach. Faculty members, staff, and students are encouraged to integrate sustainable development and SDGs in their academic, research, and engagement activities. The latest survey showed that 2,023 out of 2,152 courses (94%) provided in the academic year of 2020 had integrated SDGs in their content and class activities. In addition, our general education program has been redesigned to serve as “Living Learning Lab (LLL)” for sustainable development projects. This revised program offers many sustainability and sustainability-related courses. They are designed to be interdisciplinary in nature. Teaching-learning activities with emphasis on “living lab” as well as experiential and project-based learning are introduced through team teaching. LLL encourages faculty members and students to work as partners for sustainable development in the surrounding communities which serve as our social living labs. During Covid-19 pandemic, we have to redesign this LLL and rethink from the learnt lessons. Nevertheless, it is our belief that these practices in the “living learning lab” will foster needed sustainability competencies leading to sustainable futures.Keyword: living learning lab, learning ecosystem, sustainable development, sustainability competencies, general education

Abstract

A mutual relationship among the 3C partners—Campus, City, and Community—is essential for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Siam University, as the only higher education institution in the Phasi Charoen district, has been actively collaborating with surrounding communities and the district office for several years. At present, university administrators and faculty members have taken leading roles in supporting local and community development. The UPC4LocalSDGs and the 4Co (Co-Create, Co-Design, Co-Produce, Co-Reflect) Action Model have been developed as a framework for working with the district office and communities, which serve as our social living labs. This paper presented case studies that employed the 4Co action model in the 3C partnership sustainable initiatives. The “Tiny Heroes, Global Saviors” project in Lad Pachi community exemplified an innovative organic waste management approach using black soldier fly larvae to decompose organic waste and develop into a protein-based and laboratory-tested pet food product. The project received the 2024 IGGA Award in the “Benefitting Society” category. In the area of sustainable transportation, the “S-Guard Barrier Pole” was developed to enhance pedestrian safety, particularly for individuals using wheelchairs, while also deterring motorcyclists from driving on the footpath. Most recently, the 3C partners have co-developed a smart, rechargeable electric garbage-collection motorcycle designed for narrow alleys, with prototypes currently being tested in several communities throughout the district.
