The Role of Universities in Fostering Social Change

Universities play a vital role in fostering social change by providing students with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to address the complex challenges facing society. As Timothy Pirinduo, deputy registrar for human resources at the Lutheran University of PNG, emphasized, universities are the medium students attend to fulfill the needs of society.

The Impact of Universities on Society

Universities have a profound impact on society, extending beyond the confines of the campus. Here are some ways in which universities contribute to social change:

Promoting critical thinking and problem-solving skills: Universities equip students with the critical thinking and problem-solving skills necessary to address complex social issues.
