“Social Business Tea Art” was based on the Taiwanese sensibility. It started with "Dedicate tea" and connect with Dr. Yunus from the beginning of the nature of Taiwan's kindness and selfless dedication. The spirit and philosophy of social business to solve the underlying problems of society. The participants in the camp are concerned about the country and social environment in which they live, paying attention to important social issues that may be overlooked in their living environment, and thinking about how to solve the problem by taking the spirit and philosophy of Dr. Yunus.

This activity is the first social business exploration activity designed by the center for young students from domestic and abroad. The Yunus social business introduced by Dean Lin has played a role in inspiring the participants, not only inspiring the students to seriously examine the problems of their social environment, but also exerting the effect of teamwork to formulate a corporate model for solving social problems. It also promoted the enthusiastic discussion and exchanges among the participants when the results of each group were shared. The event will also serve as a reference for the planning and design of future activities of the Center.
