Participants were encouraged to act as Change Agents, spreading knowledge and sustainable practices to their communities.
Over 200 participants attended the event, which supported the university’s sustainability declaration. The initiative reflects KMUTT’s active role in addressing environmental challenges and its dedication to advancing sustainability.
This activity aligns with SDG 2030, particularly:
