Honors and Recognitions
林宏叡(Hung-Jui Lin)於「2026年中華民國地理學會年會暨學術研討會」榮獲學生論文競賽特優獎!
Congratulations to Hung-Jui Lin (林宏叡) for winning the Student Paper Competition Outstanding Award (學生論文競賽特優獎) at the 2026 Annual Conference of the Geography Society of China Located in Taipei (2026年中華民國地理學會年會暨學術研討會).
His awarded paper is titled: Polycentric Governance in Global SDG Partnerships: Evidence from Network Analysis (多中心治理視角下的全球永續發展夥伴關係形成機制:基於網絡分析的實證研究). The study analyzes 1,754 SDG partnership initiatives spanning 187 countries (2000–2025) using Multivariate Regression Quadratic Assignment Procedure (MRQAP) to uncover the structural logics behind global partnership formation. It identifies three distinct mechanisms — capability clustering among Northern partners, geographic regionalism among Southern partners, and asymmetric bridging in North–South collaboration — with notable variation across SDG thematic categories. These findings challenge the assumption of a single universal cooperation mechanism and demonstrate that the global SDG partnership system exhibits polycentric governance driven by heterogeneous, often competing logics.
We are incredibly proud of Hung-Jui's outstanding achievement!
