Environmental Integration is essential in addressing the complex challenges that appear through the interactions between human activities and the natural environment. As all communities strive for a sustainable future, it is essential to consider how various elements of the environment can be integrated effectively to achieve harmonious coexistence and long-term well-being for both ecosystems and societies.

In today's rapidly changing world, innovation plays a key role in shaping sustainable practices and policies. By raising creativity and finding new perspectives, researchers can develop solutions that not only address current environmental challenges but also pave the way for a more sustainable future. This conference offers a platform for sharing success stories and lessons learned, inspiring attendees to take action and implement sustainable practices in their own organizations and communities. By attending "Environmental Integration on Sustainable Perspective and Beyond," participants can contribute to a more sustainable future, where environmental concerns are integrated into all aspects of decision-making, driving a positive impact for our planet and future generations.

IEREK is organizing the first international conference on: “Environmental Integration on Sustainable Perspective and Beyond” to explore the significance of environmental integration within the context of sustainability and to push the boundaries by introducing new perspectives and innovative approaches to environmental management, this helps in making a positive change and promoting environmental resilience.

 Problem Statement:

Despite global efforts to promote sustainability and environmental protection, numerous challenges still continue to harm the residents’ comfort and resilient living. Ranging from climate change and biodiversity loss to resource depletion and pollution, these challenges underscore the urgent need for novel approaches and integrated strategies that can effectively address environmental issues while adopting the concept of sustainable development. By acknowledging these challenges and seeking innovative solutions, the conference’s outcomes and discussions can present solutions to achieve a more resilient and sustainable future for current and future generations.

 Scope:

The scope of this conference encompasses a wide range of topics related to environmental integration, sustainability innovation, and new perspectives in environmental management. Key areas of focus of the conference include but are not limited to sustainable resource management, climate change adaptation, circular economy practices, green technology advancements, biodiversity conservation, and community engagement in environmental initiatives. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in discussions, presentations, workshops, and networking sessions to exchange knowledge, share experiences, and collaborate to find solutions to pressing environmental challenges.

It is great to announce that this conference will be held in cooperation with Polytechnic University of the Philippines, a leading institution dedicated to advancing education and research in the fields of engineering, technology, and environmental sciences. This partnership emphasizes the commitment to extend and welcome more collaborations with many other co- host universities and organizations that encourage knowledge-sharing among academia, industry professionals, policymakers, and environmental sponsors to find positive change and create a more sustainable world.

Step 2.1: Abstract Acceptance

• After acceptance of your abstract of at least (150 – 300 words), you will receive a proforma invoice and specific instructions to complete the payment online or by bank transfer (See Conference Fees) to confirm your participation,
• Once your abstract has been accepted, please refer to the important dates tab and carefully review the announced dates to avoid late payment, as late payment comes at an extra charge (early bird/regular/late).
• After successfully completing payment, you will be issued upon request with the following:
  • A signed/ stamped abstract acceptance letter
