It is the largest student activity support in Korea at a single university, and is a venue to share the achievements of this workstation student activity.Unlike the COVID-19 crisis, which has dampened the activities of university students compared to previous years, this project has been found to have carried out more activities both online and offline. In order to revitalize student-led social problem-solving projects, the IHEI selected 10 PRO teams from six areas (Public Value Learning, Global Social Entrepreneurship, Social Value Management, OT2, Social Innovation Network, and Social Venture startups).Yonsei University's IHEI actively supported student-led social problem-solving projects, took the lead in linking with external institutions and continuing social problem-solving activities to support SDG 4.4 achievement.
