Sustainable Development Goals
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a collection of 17 global objectives adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. They aim to address the world's most pressing challenges, including poverty, inequality, climate change, and environmental degradation.

Below, you'll find examples of events, projects, and competition outputs created by CICS students and officers to contribute to each of these goals.


SDG 1

E-Plastic Bag, Research Paper


The E-Plastic Bag initiative is a project proposal designed to address plastic waste while contributing to SDG 1 by creating livelihood opportunities for indigent residents in Sabang, Lipa City. By transforming plastic waste into reusable bags through crochet, this project not only tackles environmental pollution but also empowers community members with sustainable income sources. The initiative is expected to raise awareness among consumers, encourage residents to improve waste disposal practices, and provide barangay officials with actionable insights for long-term sustainability. Additionally, it serves as a model for future research in the development of community-driven solutions that alleviate both environmental and socio-economic challenges.

SDG 6

The Greenhouse Gases Emission Inventory and Analytical Dashboard is an innovative proposal aimed at the employees of the Center for Sustainable Development (CSD) and the Sustainable Development Office (SDO) at Batangas State University TNEU. This system is designed to evaluate, monitor, compute, and manage the institution’s carbon footprint derived from various energy resources. The project will leverage a range of technologies, including Python and JavaScript for programming, HTML and CSS for web design, and MySQL for database management. For the development of both the front end and back end, frameworks such as Bootstrap and Flask will be utilized, with Mapbox employed for mapping and visualization. The web hosting will be handled using PHP and GoDaddy. In terms of analytics, the system will incorporate a machine learning approach using the ARIMA model for time series forecasting to provide predictive insights. Additionally, the system will feature a prescriptive model focusing on optimization plots. This will enable the exploration of different scenarios, comparison of outcomes, and informed decision-making based on the combined insights from ARIMA predictions and optimization analysis.

In alignment with SDG 6, the Greenhouse Gases Emission Inventory and Analytical Dashboard will also address the interconnection between carbon emissions and water resources. In addition, the project also contributes to other SDGs, particularly SDG 7, SDG 12, and SDG 13.
