教育目標

The objective is to understand various issues related to food production and distribution, political and environmental problems that are considered causes of hunger and malnutrition in developing and developed countries, and to encourage the younger generation, who will live in the next era, to think about potential solutions. Specifically, this includes new and expanded topics such as genetically modified foods, the impact of climate change, the quality of farmland and water, the significance of globalization, and the implications of changes in population policies, such as the repeal of China's 'one-child policy.' Through lectures and discussions in class, a midterm exam, and an essay writing assignment on the efforts of countries around the world regarding the SDGs, students will deepen their understanding of the above issues.
