SDG1.4.3 Programmes for services access Year: 2019 or 2020
People are at the core of sustainable development. NCUE is duty-bound to create a fair, just, and inclusive future. NCUE deems it vital to promote sustainability and improve everyone’s access to basic services. To eradicate poverty, NCUE organises training and projects to improve students’ and related interest groups’ access to basic services. The measures are as follows:
1. NCUE actively improves everyone’s access to basic services with various projects.
To care for the community with high-quality education and reduce inequality, NCUE seeks to improve everyone’s access to basic services by implementing various projects (e.g. Ministry of Science and Technology projects, Ministry of Education projects, University Social Responsibility (USR) Projects, University Social Responsibility (USR) Hub Projects), offering language courses, sending groups to serve remote areas, and holding open seminars and community education activities.
2. NCUE implements plans, integrates resources, achieves goals, and obtains fruitful results.
The relevant plans, policies, and outcomes in terms of education, service, electricity, and health are as follows:
