University Social Responsibility Summit 2018

PolyU joined the University of Haifa and The Hebrew University of Jerusalem to co-host the University Social Responsibility (USR) Summit 2018 in early December 2018 in Haifa, Israel. It gathered over 100 senior government officials, academics, community leaders and students of higher education institutions from various countries. The three-day event consisted of different plenary and parallel sessions around the theme of ‘Universities' Social Responsibility in Shaping a Future of Critical Hope’, as well as study tours in both the Haifa region and Jerusalem. This Summit is a biennial flagship event of PolyU’s University Social Responsibility Network (USRN), which has emerged as a worldwide network to promote social responsibility amongst global universities.
