CALL FOR PAPERS

ICSG was formed in 2018 to develop synergy between academia, industry and government towards a more sustainable world.

The 2025 conference theme will be ‘Sustainable transportation, technology and tourism’. Presentations will be held on two days in five different tracks: Education; Innovation and Entrepreneurship; Tourism and Economy; Sustainability, Environment and Risk Management, and Food and Energy Security. The third day will be devoted to an interdisciplinary workshop in a boat or a beach along the Colombo coast and there will be multiple networking opportunities throughout the conference. After the conference, participants have the opportunity to visit local Sri Lankan companies, who won the ICSG Sustainability Awards in 2024. The group will learn in depth about sustainability projects and best practices during a post conference Sri Lanka Sustainability tour and immersive workshop. A special characteristic of the ICSG conference is to engage participants not only from scientific backgrounds, but also from the area of entrepreneurship and administration to exchange views and develop solutions towards a more sustainable world. This approach in the past 6 conferences has allowed start-Ups to develop, international agreements to be signed and networking and best practices exchanges between universities and communities.

The three-day event consists of a conference with regular papers, lightning talks with networking discussions and a poster session marketplace, complemented by timely keynotes, research networking sessions, a half-day workshop and multi-partner project sessions. Best paper and Student Paper Awards will be given out on the third day along with the Sustainability awards. In recognition of academic, business and governing excellence, ICSG will host the grand annual Global Sustainability Awards on the 3rd day of the conference. The prestigious Global Sustainability Awards launched in 2024 will be in different sectors of the economy with the most coveted awards being the “Green University of the year”, the “Green Business of the year” and the “Green Government of the year”.
