The 3rd International Conference on Natural Resources and Sustainable Development (ICNRSD) 2024

Sumatera Utara

Medan, ID

November 20, 2024 – December 30, 2024

The issue of Sustainable Development has remained a central issue over the past three decades. The seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, are action plans that involve all societal actors and define goals and targets, with the aim of stimulating action to achieve these goals by 2030. However, the gap between the world of research and practice in implementing sustainable development is still considerable.

Universities are key institutions for disseminating knowledge, through teaching, and for generating new knowledge, through research. These aspects make universities important players in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Universities have a major role to play by introducing not only the teaching of sustainable development into the curriculum across the spectrum of courses offered, but also the programs themselves are sustainable. Research found that there is a lack of knowledge and awareness of sustainable development among students as well as experts. Not only that, they are not equipped with the knowledge and skills to participate in sustainable processes in the workplace. Thus, the integration of SD in Higher Education (HE) can be achieved through teaching, research, environmental management, and knowledge transmission so as to improve the implementation of hitherto unsolved sustainability practices related to economic vitality, justice, social cohesion, environmental protection, inefficient energy use, lack of water conservation, increased pollution, human rights violations, war, poverty, excessive use of private transportation, consumerism, and sustainable management of natural resources

Reflecting on this background, therefore the 3rd International Seminar on Natural Resources on Sustainable Development this year focuses on the theme "ESTABLISHING A COHESIVE FRAMEWORK FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: INTEGRATING RESEARCH AND PRACTICE"

The 2nd International Conference on Natural Resources and Sustainable Development (ICNRSD)

Sumatera Utara

Medan, ID

October 29, 2022 – October 30, 2022

Indonesia, especially North Sumatera Province, is the place of natural resources that have become the place for conducting research activities whose benefits can be used sustainably. However, if the natural resources are not maintained properly, the destruction will occur even to the point of extinction. Furthermore, this condition is worsened by the existence of global warming, habitat fragmentation, and habitat extinctions that lead to the extinction of certain species. To anticipate this condition, studies and deep collaborations from all fields of knowledge are essential, in the level of both national and international, which focus on the effort to properly utilize and maintain the sustainability of natural resources. One of the agenda to accommodate this purpose is by creating an international scientific forum involving many related parties. Postgraduate Program as a part of academia civitas in Universitas Sumatera Utara is expected to be able to participate in improving the capacity and capability in the field of research and foremost publication internationally, specifically in the fields of Environmental Issues, Regional Development, Economic, Management, Natural and Heritage Conservation and Defence, to increase the natural material relevance and derivative product as well as the science and technology utilization in production sector in order to grow national economy and improve the society welfare. Therefore, Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) Postgraduate Program will hold “The 2nd International Conference on Natural Resources and Sustainable Development (ICNRSD)”. This event is hoped to bridge the communication and become a sharing platform for related researchers regarding the natural resources management, regional development, and economic management and their linkages, as well as stakeholders as an effort to together synergize knowledge with human needs in life and create a better environment.

Theme : "Environmental Issues, Regional Development, Economic and Management, Natural and Heritage Conservation ””
