SULAM@UPM Carnival 2025
Dewan Besar Pusat Kebudayaan dan Kesenian Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah (PKKSSAAS), UPM
The organisation of the SULAM@UPM Carnival aims to highlight best practices in the implementation of SULAM across Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Malaysia, as well as to enhance awareness, understanding and appreciation of service-learning as one of the High-Impact Educational Practices (HIEPs).
The Service-Learning (SULAM@UPM) Carnival 2025 is scheduled to take place on 16-17 June 2025, bringing together participants from higher education institutions (HEIs) across Malaysia. This carnival aims to strengthen the High-Impact Educational Practices (HIEPs) approach by integrating academic teaching with community service, aligning with efforts to position HEIs as significant agents of social change.
SULAM, as one of the key strategies of the Department of Higher Education (JPT), emphasises active student engagement in solving community issues using the knowledge and skills acquired through the curriculum. This carnival will serve as a platform to highlight the impact of SULAM projects in supporting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and fostering holistic community development.
Encouraging and recognising the implementation of SULAM with communities, involving students and lecturers from HEIs alongside public participation, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), industries and relevant agencies in a more structured manner.
Showcasing best practices, innovative approaches, and high-impact service-based initiatives that contribute to the community, addressing the evolving needs of 21st-century learners.
Providing a platform to explore new approaches and discuss the latest developments in the field by bringing together educators, researchers, industry players and relevant agencies.
Highlighting the impact of SULAM on community well-being while promoting student and university involvement in addressing real societal challenges and fostering collaboration between universities, communities and industries to enhance the implementation of SULAM.
