Public reporting on university progress and performance related to SDG9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure).


The “Published Progress – SDG9” focus area at PTUK focuses on documenting initiatives that foster sustainable industrialization, innovation, and resilient infrastructure. PTUK implements applied research, capacity-building projects, and community programs in smart agriculture, renewable energy, ICT infrastructure, and technological innovation. These efforts aim to enhance industrial processes, improve productivity, and support innovation ecosystems that benefit both the university and surrounding communities.

Publishing progress under this focus area contributes to SDG17 by fostering multi-stakeholder collaboration and knowledge exchange. PTUK shares research outcomes, case studies, and technical reports with industry partners, government agencies, NGOs, and international institutions. These publications enable replication of successful innovation models, facilitate partnerships, and inform policy development, strengthening the capacity of institutions to implement sustainable industrial and technological solutions.

Through this focus area, PTUK links academic research, technological innovation, and infrastructure development to practical applications that improve local industry and community resilience. Publicly sharing outcomes ensures transparency, promotes best practices, and strengthens partnerships at local, regional, and international levels. By integrating applied research, education, and community engagement, PTUK contributes to both SDG9 and the broader objectives of SDG17, advancing sustainable industrial growth through collaborative action and shared expertise.
