This paper examines the effectiveness of the Service Learning Malaysia University for Society (SULAM) project in promoting knowledge sharing and fostering global citizenship among students. The SULAM initiative, a collaborative effort between Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) and Universitas Singaperbangsa Karawang (UNSIKA), aims to provide students with practical experience in addressing real-world challenges faced by international Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs). This study, drawing on comments from supervising lecturers and community partners involved in the project, explores the impact of the SULAM programme on students' development of global competency and practical skills. The findings highlight the significance of active engagement, teamwork, and collaboration in enhancing students' understanding of global issues and their ability to navigate complex problems. Furthermore, the SULAM programme's alignment with learning outcomes related to practical and entrepreneurial skills accentuates its role in preparing students to become active contributors to global society. Overall, this research contributes to the growing body of literature on service learning and highlights the importance of experiential learning initiatives in promoting global citizenship and sustainable development.
