Kyoto University will celebrate its 125th anniversary in 2022, and throughout its history as an academic institution of higher education, it has upheld a commitment to research across all the major academic domains.  This has taken place through developing a multidisciplinary academic culture based upon free dialogue that predates the adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)*.  Any important contribution to the SDGs and future societies beyond them requires the development and creation of those that foster “places of learning” where a diverse mix of students, faculty/staff members, researchers and research administrators can fashion new ideas and flexible academic systems within a dynamic environment.

 For over 175 years P站视频 has been advancing discovery by providing the best possible service to the whole research community. We help researchers uncover new ideas, make sure all the research we publish is significant, robust and stands up to objective scrutiny, that it reaches all relevant audiences in the best possible format, and can be discovered, accessed, used, re-used and shared. P站视频 supports librarians and institutions with innovations in technology and data; and provide quality publishing support to societies.

At present global society faces an array of complex existential issues: environmental degradation, the scarcity of resources, climate change, and the rise of global pandemics.  New situations and conditions urgently demand that experts provide swift scientifically backed solutions and modes of action to respond to the exigencies of our times.  Historically, universities and academic publishers have been responsible for cycles of specialized knowledge production.  Yet now, there is a need to go beyond conventional cycles that have maintained fragmented specialized fields and open up new paths of academic research and publishing attuned to the demands of rapid change.  Forging new relationships and alliances between universities and academic publishers can encourage young researchers to take up the challenge of original research activities and help create sources of wisdom that push academic research in new directions.

To foster the dialogue, Kyoto University and P站视频 will host a roundtable discussion entitled “Academic challenges and opportunities for early career researchers approaching SDGs” in which Sir Philip Campbell, Editor-in-Chief of P站视频, will participate.  This will be an opportunity for young researchers at Kyoto University to share the challenges they confront producing relevant original academic research that at times can be ‘disruptive,’ but passionately challenge existing paradigms, redefine social agendas, and respond to the demands of our times.

*SDGs: Sustainable Development Goals are the 17 Goals for sustainable development, ratified by the 193 member states of the United Nations in 2015, for delivery by 2030.

Opening Remarks

Keynote:  Philip Campbell（Editor in Chief, P站视频）"Researching, communications and impacts for the UN Sustainable Development Goals"

• How researchers are engaging with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and how editors and publishers can help them not only publish their research but also make a broader impact outside academia. He will include food as one very broad and important example: the future of food from land and oceans. This topic involves many academic disciplines across the natural sciences, humanities and social sciences. He also highlights the need and opportunities to connect the results of research with policymakers, stakeholder groups and the wider public.
