Published Progress – SDG13 (Climate Action)  [17.3.13]

Public reporting on university progress and performance related to SDG13 (Climate Action).


The “Published Progress – SDG13” focus area at PTUK focuses on documenting initiatives aimed at combating climate change and its impacts. PTUK implements applied research, campus programs, and community outreach in areas such as renewable energy, greenhouse gas reduction, climate-resilient agriculture, carbon footprint assessment, and climate adaptation strategies. These efforts contribute to global climate targets while enhancing local sustainability and resilience.

Publishing progress under this focus area supports SDG17 by fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange among universities, government agencies, NGOs, and international partners. PTUK disseminates case studies, research findings, and technical reports that inform climate policies, promote innovative mitigation and adaptation strategies, and encourage replication of successful projects. Documentation strengthens institutional capacity, promotes transparency, and encourages evidence-based decision-making for climate action initiatives.

Through this focus area, PTUK integrates research, education, and community engagement to reduce climate risks and enhance environmental resilience. Publicly sharing outcomes ensures the dissemination of best practices, builds collaborative partnerships, and fosters multi-stakeholder action. By linking academic research with practical interventions, PTUK contributes to both SDG13 and the broader objectives of SDG17, facilitating coordinated global and local efforts to combat climate change.
