desirable outcomes in tandem with technical possibilities. “It is essential that we collectively and politically consider the implications of what it means to be human,” Naidoo said. She also addressed the potential risks of placing excessive trust in technology and highlighted the value of “learning from past ex-perience and aligning technology with our core values,” rather than “allowing technology to take a dominant role in shaping the future.”To achieve this, she said that students must consider the ob-jectives of innovation and transformation, and that universities should establish an international supervisory sector to create a broader global governance structure for collaboration between universities and technology companies. Tshilidzi Marwala, Rector of the United Nations University in Japan, noted in his remarks that the objective of education is to shape humanity. Universities should leverage technology to fa-cilitate student engagement with the real world and their contri-bution to humanity’s advancement. identified three abilities that must be cultivated in order to effec-tively address current threats to human security and that are also required of global citizens: “The capacity to work collaboratively with other disciplines while leveraging knowledge from one’s own field; a broad understanding of networks formed by interde-pendent threats; and the ability to coordinate interests across di-verse regional and temporal perspectives.” He noted that Sophia University is always open to novel ideas to enhance its efforts, par-ticularly ones that align with our commitment to fostering these universities, academics, and students in conflict zones.”Jekuk Chang, President of Dongseo University in South Korea, observed that new technologies, in-cluding artificial intelligence and online solutions, can play a pivotal role in reducing administrative expenses and course-related costs, and help al-leviate the burden on students of high tuition and significant debt upon graduation. Naidoo emphasized the value of interpersonal connections and the importance of balancing technology-based learning and peer interaction. She highlighted that a lack of meaningful rela-tionships can lead to a decline in personal ac-countability, an increased need for instant gratifi-cation, and a narrowing of one’s knowledge base. “It is vital to foster relationships and empathy in today’s world, where we are witnessing the con-sequences of dehumanization,” she stated.Chang recommended that universities focus more on teach-ing social skills and providing experience-based learning that help students build relationships and nurture compassion, as well as allowing them to identify and develop their potential. He stated, “While embracing technologies, it is essential to prioritize human values at the core of education.” This aligns with Naidoo’s assertion that universities must guide students to explore socially Eight IAU conference breakout sessions were convened along with the plenary sessions.
