The East Asia Climate Avengers 2025 China, a comparative program hosted by the Climate Change Response Project Team at Kookmin University (President Jeong Seung-ryul) and operated by the Global Climate Environment Convergence Department (Chinese Language and Culture major), was successfully held for six nights and seven days from July 6 to 12 in Beijing, China, and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

This program was designed to strengthen global climate crisis response capabilities, gain a practical understanding of the significance of the carbon-neutral era, and explore proactive strategies for addressing various industrial and policy changes through on-site experiences. To this end, participants focused on the role of the Chinese government in climate crisis response, visiting two regions—Beijing and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region—and relevant institutions.

In addition, all participants took part in planting one desert willow tree each, contributing to desertification prevention. Desertification prevention afforestation helps mitigate climate change by preserving soil, restoring biodiversity, and absorbing greenhouse gases. Furthermore, the program analyzed actual cases of ESG strategies, which are part of China's core climate change response strategies, with the core goal of fostering convergent thinking skills that enable participants to understand regional studies, energy policy, and the environment and climate in an integrated manner.

In particular, participants had the opportunity to gain a systematic understanding of China's carbon neutrality policy and industrial restructuring trends by exploring China's low-carbon industrial policies, such as solar power, wind power, and electric vehicles.

The East Asia Climate Avengers 2025 China program was a meaningful educational program that involved in-depth field research on China's carbon neutrality policy, ESG strategy, and renewable energy industries such as solar, wind, and electric vehicles, and interpreted these findings from an interdisciplinary perspective by linking them with regional studies, climate science, and industrial policy. Participants unanimously agreed that they were able to directly experience on-site that the climate crisis is a practical issue that requires the integration of technology, policy, and citizen participation.

This activity went beyond a simple field experience, serving as a catalyst to remind the entire Kookmin University community of the importance of interdisciplinary and collaborative education centered on the Climate Change Response Project Team. It is evaluated as a representative case study demonstrating how practical education can be implemented to cultivate talent capable of interpreting the complex structures of real-world society and industry beyond the boundaries of a single academic discipline.

Meanwhile, as the lead institution of the HUSS (Humanities and Social Sciences Convergence Talent Development Program), Kookmin University is collaborating with Deokseong Women's University, Ulsan University, Inha University, and Chosun University to realize interdisciplinary education under the theme of “Coexistence and Symbiosis in the Era of Climate Crisis.” This program is receiving high praise as a practical educational model in this context.
