Sookmyung ESG Declaration for the 120th Anniversary
Founded in 1906 as the first national women's academy by the Imperial Family, Sookmyung Women's University has cultivated female leaders who contribute to the development of humanity for the past 120 years. Embracing the spirit of 'Outthinkers Sookmyung,' we now declare our commitment to ESG Management to address the climate crisis and social inequalities while fulfilling our institutional social responsibility.
Environment: Net-Zero Green Campus
We are committed to implementing the '2050 Carbon Neutrality Roadmap' to respond to the global climate crisis. By establishing smart campus infrastructure for energy efficiency and promoting resource circulation, we will create a sustainable environment to pass on to future generations.
Social: Empowerment & Equity (EDI)
As a pioneer in women's education, we will propagate Gender Equality Leadership and practice the values of EDI (Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion). Through AI-driven innovative education, we aim to bridge educational gaps and strengthen inclusive networks with local and global communities.
Governance: Transparent & Ethical Trust
We ensure fairness and transparency in all university operations by establishing an advanced governance system. We will realize democratic decision-making involving all members of the university community and set a standard for university management through compliance and ethical values.
