A total of 36 students, including 32 international students and 4 Japanese students, ranging from undergraduate to doctoral students, were appointed as the 7th term Student SDGs Promoters. At the appointment ceremony, Prof. Yamaguchi, Director of the SDGs Promotion Office, handed a letter of commission to a representative of the promoters. Regarding the activities for this academic year, Prof. Yamaguchi explained about SDGs events and "SDGs Activity Scoop" which involves writing articles introducing SDGs-related events and research.
