About Conference

 

Caucasus University with the esteemed support of the United Nations, is announcing IXth Annual Scientific Conference with a motivation to provide an excellent international platform for prominent academicians, researchers and aspiring young scientists.

 

The conference, planned for 2024, is thematically linked to the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the challenges facing the modern world, which is a global agenda due to the diversity and urgency of the issues.

 

We cordially invite all interested authors, encouraging them to showcase their cutting-edge research papers and share invaluable experiences with fellow participants. This diverse assembly of minds ensures a rich tapestry of perspectives and methodologies, fostering a dynamic atmosphere conducive to the exchange of ideas that transcend geographical and disciplinary boundaries. 

 

The conference is held annually and is attended by researchers from various higher educational institutions of Georgia, as well as foreign educational, scientific and research centers.

 

The conference is inspired from the critical challenge of human, environmental, and economic sustainability concerning the present and future generations in a global-scale context.

 

This ambition will proceed in a multidisciplinary way across the various fields and perspectives, through which we can address the fundamental and related questions of Sustainable Development.

 

This interdisciplinary conference is for both with an academic degree and PhD candidates/students and practitioners from any professional discipline who continue the existing scientific traditions, bring innovations to the academic space and share an interest in—and concern for— sustainability in a holistic perspective, where environmental, cultural, economic and social concerns intersect.
