The Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK) and Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU) jointly hosted the EdUHK-LMU Joint Symposium—Engaging Learners in Sustainability: Exploring Socio-Scientific and Environmental Challenges on 6 October at EdUHK Tai Po Campus. The symposium brought together scholars, researchers and educators from the Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong, France, Germany and beyond to exchange insights on sustainability education, environmental science, educational psychology, artificial intelligence (AI), and emerging technologies, fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and international collaboration in addressing global challenges.
In response to escalating environmental challenges and rapid technological transformation, the symposium examined how education, research and international collaboration can contribute to sustainable development and cultivate future-ready learners to tackle complex socio-scientific issues. It also explored the opportunities and challenges posed by AI and its potential to drive educational innovation and sustainability.
The event further strengthened the partnership between EdUHK and LMU, reflecting the two universities' shared commitment to advancing sustainability, educational innovation and international collaboration. Through continued exchange and joint initiatives, both institutions aspire to contribute to sustainable development and empower future generations to thrive in an increasingly interconnected and technology-driven world.
