The Center for Sustainable Development, College of Arts and Sciences at Qatar University in collaboration with the Department of Biological & Environmental Sciences and the M-NEX Project is organizing an International Sustainability Workshop - ISW 2021 on 26-27 October 2021.
Demographic explosion, climate change, urbanization, change of life quality, and increasing food demand have put extra pressure on food, energy, and water resources and subsequent waste management issues. These resources should be sustainably managed to avoid overexploitation and depletion, and at the same time satisfying the needs of the present and future generations. The International Sustainability Workshop 2021 will explore the possibilities of sustainable resource use and management in Qatar and worldwide. The latest experiences, knowledge, lessons learned, and best practices will be presented and discussed by multidisciplinary experts from Qatar, USA, Japan, Germany, Italy, UK, and UAE. The scientific advancements in sustainable development will be covered through 4 dedicated sessions focused on ‘’Food’’, ‘’Water and Waste’’, ‘’Energy’’, and ‘’Sustainability and Global Issues’’.
