They are encouraged to engage virtually in university events, sustainability forums, and professional development activities, fostering collaboration and community within HBMSU's vibrant global network. Applicants must demonstrate expertise in sustainability education, environmental management, or circular economy practices, along with familiarity with smart learning methodologies and online facilitation.
