Tenth International Conference on Environmental, Cultural,
Economic, and Social Sustainability

The University of Split, Split, Croatia

22-24 January 2014

Conference Focus

The conference will work in a multidisciplinary way across the various fields and perspectives through which we can address the fundamental and related questions of sustainability. This interdisciplinary forum is for scholars, teachers, and practitioners from any professional discipline who share an interest in—and concern for— sustainability in an holistic perspective, where environmental, cultural, economic and social concerns intersect.

We are inviting proposals for paper presentations, workshops/interactive sessions, posters/exhibits, or colloquia (See Proposal Types) that address sustainability through one of the following themes:

Sustainability Policy and Practice Environmental Sustainability
Sustainability in Economic, Social and Cultural Context Sustainability Education
Special 2014 Theme: World Heritage and Sustainable Tourism Development

Proposal ideas that extend beyond these thematic areas will also be considered.  For more information about the ideas and themes underlying this community, see Our Focus.

Virtual participation is available for those who are unable to attend the conference in person. Proposals for virtual presentations may be submitted at any time, up to the start of the conference.  All conference registrants (in-person and virtual) may also submit their written papers for publication in the refereed International Journal of Environmental, Cultural, Economic and Social Sustainability.
