In a collaborative effort to foster knowledge exchange and community development, students from WUIC recently participated in a transformative program aimed at enhancing their business management skills and cultural awareness. The initiative, organized with a clear vision, aims to benefit the local community of Ban Kiri Wong.
Community-Centric Vision for Business Management Skills: Students actively engaged with local entrepreneurs to exchange knowledge and enhance their business management skills. The program's vision is centered on fostering a clear understanding of business practices and creating tangible benefits for the Ban Kiri Wong community.
Exploring Local Culture Through Practical Experience: To immerse themselves in the local culture of Nakhon Si Thammarat province, students participated in hands-on activities such as learning traditional Thai cooking and practicing the art of tie-dyeing fabric. These experiences provided a deeper understanding of the local way of life.
Promoting Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Students were encouraged to recognize and address Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through initiatives that support the local community. This included efforts to alleviate poverty, promote gender equality, and contribute to long-term sustainable development.
Lifelong Learning Skills Promotion: The program emphasized the promotion of lifelong learning skills among students. By actively participating in real-world scenarios, students developed critical thinking, problem-solving, and adaptability – skills crucial for continuous learning throughout their lives.
Ongoing Guidance and Consultation: Since December 2022, students have received ongoing guidance and consultation from faculty members of the International College. This ensures that the knowledge gained from the program continues to influence and shape their academic and professional pursuits.
In conclusion, WUIC's community engagement program not only enriched the students' academic experience but also contributed to the sustainable development of Ban Kiri Wong. The combination of business management skills, cultural immersion, and a commitment to SDGs positions the students as catalysts for positive change in their future endeavors.
