Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan (“the Foundation”) has been a longstanding advocate for social businesses in Taiwan, promoting the "common good" model. To date, it has facilitated the establishment of Yunus Social Business Centres (YSBC) at 14 universities across Taiwan. These centres aim to integrate education and sustainable resources to cultivate students' awareness of the "3Zero" sustainability goals. Last year, Chihlee University of Technology signed an agreement with Professor Muhammad Yunus, the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize laureate, to establish a YSBC. In late May this year, Chihlee University of Technology signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Foundation, marking a significant step forward in the development and innovation of social businesses. Chihlee University of Technology is deeply committed to sustainable education, hosting numerous workshops and international forums each year. These events feature both domestic and international experts who share innovative insights with students. The MoU was signed by Chihlee University of Technology President, Chen Zhu-long, and Philippa Tsai, President of the Foundation, solidifying the direction and plans for their collaboration this year. President Chen Zhu-Long expressed gratitude to former Premier Mao Chi-Kuo for recommending Chihlee University of Technology to the Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan, which facilitated the partnership with the Yunus Centre in Bangladesh. The YSBC at Chihlee is led by the Dean of the College of Business Management, Liu Fen- Mei, who also serves as the YSBC Director. The centre promotes food conservation on campus and actively fosters industry-academia collaboration to nurture sustainable talent. President Philippa Tsai, highlighted that since its inception, the foundation has adhered to Professor Yunus' vision of "zero net carbon emissions, zero poverty, and zero unemployment." The Foundation consistently organizes activities that engage students and broaden their horizons. Chihlee University of Technology frequently invites prominent speakers for campus lectures. Following the MoU signing, the university hosted a keynote speech by Chairman Ling Chung-Yuan of Chang Hwa Commercial Bank, who educated students on fraud prevention through engaging stories and practical advice, offering a valuable learning experience. Since the establishment of the YSBC last year, Dean Liu Fen-Mei has participated in the Social Business Day in Malaysia, enhancing Taiwan’s presence in international academic forums. This MoU signifies a strong collaborative effort between Chihlee University of Technology YSBC and the Foundation in promoting social business development. Both parties will continue to work together towards creating a world with the "3 Zero" vision. ![]() Group photo of Distinguished Professor Ding Ke Hua (first from left), President Chen Chu Long (second from left) of Chihlee University of Technology, Philippa Tsai (second from right), President of Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan, and Chairman Ling Chong Yuan (first from right) of Chang Hwa Commercial Bank. 台灣尤努斯基金會長期推動社會型企業的共善模式,每月在台北、高雄辦理尤努斯社企沙龍,邀請產學界社會創新領域人士分享社會企業的經營與創業之道,五月高雄場尤努斯社企沙龍假Le Phare共享空間-新左營館舉辦,由中華民國碳盤查產業工會贊助協辦,邀請台灣尤努斯基金會董事長同時也是群景國際商務法律事務所所長蔡慧玲律師專題演講「募資與創業法律兼論專業力與談判力之養成」,分享在創業與募資中應注意的相關法律與談判技巧。

University President Chen Tong Xiao invited prominent guests, including Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan President ,Philippa Tsai, former Director General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ European Affairs Department and Honorary Advisor of the Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan Ambassador Chiu Zhong Ren and his wife, and Director General of the Department of Technological and Vocational Education at the Ministry of Education Yang Yu Hui. Together, they planted three pink shower trees on campus to symbolize the commitment to “net zero carbon emissions,” hoping to inspire youth to embrace environmental protection principles and promote low-carbon vegetarian diets at the event’s marketplace. President Chen Tong Xiao began by welcoming and thanking the distinguished guests. Director General ,Yang Yu Hui, emphasized in her speech that students should cultivate a sense of social responsibility during their time at school. She mentioned the UN’s goal of achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2030 and stressed the importance of starting with individual actions, such as using reusable cups and practicing energy conservation, to prevent the recurring image of polar bears stranded on small ice floes. She hoped that students would understand and embody the spirit of environmental sustainability through the event. Ambassador ,Chiu ZhongRen, shared that despite the harsh climates and difficulty in obtaining fruits and vegetables while serving abroad, he remained committed to a vegetarian diet. He emphasized that global warming is worsening and that adopting a vegetarian diet is one way to help save the planet. Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan President ,Philippa Tsai, noted that there are currently 108 universities worldwide with Yunus Social BusinessCentres, all of which are renowned institutions. National Taichung University of Science and Technology was the first in central Taiwan to establish a YSBC. The university’s “Campus Net Zero Carbon Emissions Day” promotes carbon reduction principles and inspires more young people to engage in the Zero Emissions, Zero Poverty, and Zero Unemployment goals and social business entrepreneurship. She encouraged students to participate in the Taiwan Yunus Social Business Innovation Award to gain more experience connecting with industries. The Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan will continue to integrate YSBC resources from various universities to promote the good business model of social businesses in Taiwan. They will also organize social innovation activities, inviting young people to participate and allowing the seeds of sustainability to take root and grow in Taiwan. The Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan was authorized by Professor Muhammad Yunus, the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, to promote the concepts of social businesses and the three-zero vision of zero carbon emissions, zero poverty, and zero unemployment. They encourage Taiwanese universities to establish YSBCs to promote social business models and the three-zero vision on campus. The Foundation supports YSBCs in organizing workshops, forums, and other initiatives to fulfill social responsibility and plant the seeds of sustainability in the hearts of young students. ![]() Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan President ,Philippa Tsai, former Director General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ European Affairs Department and Honorary Advisor of the Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan Ambassador Chiu Zhong Ren and his wife, Director General of the Department of Technological and Vocational Education at the Ministry of Education Yang Yu Hui, and National Taichung University of Science and Technology President Chen Tong Xiao jointly planted pink shower trees at the Sanmin campus of National Taichung University of Science and Technology. ![]() Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan President ,Philippa Tsai (left) presented the book "A World of Three Zeros" by Professor Yunus to Director General of the Department of Technological and Vocational Education at the Ministry of Education Yang Yu Hui (center) and National Taichung University of Science and Technology President Chen Tong Xiao (right). ![]() Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan President Philippa Tsai (far left), former Director General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ European Affairs Department and Honorary Advisor of the Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan Ambassador Chiu Zhong Ren and his wife (far right, second from right), together planted pink shower trees at the Sanmin campus of National Taichung University of Science and Technology. ![]() Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan President Philippa Tsai (far left), former Director General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ European Affairs Department and Honorary Advisor of the Foundation for Yunus Social Business Taiwan Ambassador Chiu Zhong Ren and his wife (far right, second from right), together planted pink shower trees at the Sanmin campus of National Taichung University of Science and Technology.
