Investigating the Assessment and Evaluation of Blue Impact from Community-Based Approach for Ocean Through Think Tank-University Social Responsibility
摘要
Universities play a vital role in bridging research and education to create innovative solution for community as partnership. Both Japan and Taiwan share the similar concern as maritime states and recognize that collaboration emerges as the linchpin for strengthening relationships between faculty, students, and local residents, ensuring sustainability with a positive societal impact. This chapter introduces the book, underscoring the significance of effective assessment within a community-based approach for ocean-related projects under the framework of think tank-university social responsibility. The book’s structure encompasses four key sections: (1) Methodology of Problem-Solving Structure for Coastal Region; (2) Challenges and Opportunities of Ocean-link Industries; (3) Innovative Forms of Blue Impact; (4) Evaluating Blue Impact from the Social and Environmental Perspective. These experiences rely on problem identification, assessment, and endeavors driven by shared motivations and the establishment of trust among research institutes, universities, and communities.
