Identification of Key Issues and Boundaries

Based on the definition of "individuals or organizations that have a direct or indirect impact on the school", we have identified seven categories of stakeholders and collected a list of relevant sustainability issues through representatives of the school council, department head consensus camps, and internal faculty and staff seminars, and then conducted an analysis of the significance of the issues in accordance with the GRI criteria, stakeholder concern survey, and the assessment of the degree of impact on the organization by the first- and second-level administrators in the school. We also analyzed the significance of the issues, and incorporated the important development plans of the school, such as the Mid-Term School Development Plan and the Higher Education Sprout Project, as well as the opinions provided by the reviewers of the sustainability report. After many discussions, 18 key issues resolved by the Sustainable Development Promotion Committee were approved as the principles for the disclosure of information and the planning of strategies and policies for sustainable development of the school. The merger of theme will be reviewed on a yearly basis. The steps for implementation are described below:

Boundary Analysis of Key Topics

After identifying the significant topics disclosed in this report, the scope of entities from which information was collected for each significant topic was categorized as inside and outside the organization: inside the organization was NUK itself, covering students, faculty, and staff; and outside the organization was parents and community members, alumni, enterprises and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Consider key themes: A07. Stakeholder communication as the core development spirit of the sustainability report is not a separate theme; A04. Purchasing and vendor management is already covered under the topic of green purchasing, so it is not a separate theme; B04. Extra-curricular activities are already covered under the topic of social responsibility of the University, so it is not a separate theme; there are a total of 18 key themes.
