Off-Campus Conservation [6.5.3]
University participation in external initiatives and partnerships supporting national and regional water-conservation projects.
Off-Campus Conservation initiatives extend water sustainability practices to surrounding communities and natural water sources. PTUK engages in river clean-ups, watershed management, irrigation efficiency projects, and community training. These initiatives support SDG6 by improving water availability, reducing pollution, and fostering sustainable practices beyond the campus. Students and faculty lead research, field projects, and collaborative programs with local authorities. Outputs include community action reports, conservation pilot projects, and environmental awareness campaigns.
