KUIS DGtaLink is the one of the school community in KUIS. The word of “DGtaLink” is a coined word, it is “SDGs”, “Digital” and “Link”. This community was named with the hope that we want to connect and link KUIS students, teachers and managers by SDGs with digital platforms. Achieving the SDGs will require collective action from multiple stakeholders, including university students. This presentation provides an overview of the development of a student community focused on the SDGs at a private university in Japan. In particular, it will explain the background to the community, the purpose and aims, as well as our vision to take the community forward. In addition, the presentation will highlight some of the challenges we faced when developing the group. For example, seeking members to join the group or to manage digital platform.
