(一)STAR Global Conference 2025
Where Local Knowledge Meets Global Change
The STAR Global Conference 2025 reimagines how knowledge is created, valued, and applied. We challenge traditional academic metrics and champion interdisciplinary, socially impactful scholarship that addresses real-world challenges—locally and globally.
Expand scholarship beyond traditional metrics to reflect diverse knowledge ecosystems.
Align research with real societal needs for greater local and global impact.
Build collaborative, inclusive networks that foster socially responsible scholarship.
We hope this message finds you well.
