WASD 22nd International Sustainability Conference

The conference aims to highlight the theoretical and practical aspects to the role of human capital in the new digital era towards achieving the United Nations' 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Human capital (knowledge, abilities and skills) is considered as stimulus of the innovation process for economic growth and development.

The conference also aims to provide participants with better understanding of the future graduates and how can Digital Transformation (DT) contribute and enhance competitiveness for graduates. Job creation, economic diversification and the act of inventing new products and services are increasingly seen as vital for the future development of the country. Policymakers seek to ensure that national economies benefit from the digital revolution by building capacity for the creation of new ideas, technologies, organisational know-how and innovation.

Similar to all previous Annual Conferences organised by WASD, this conference will bring together academics, universities and research institutions from across the world to collaborate and reconnect with the discourse of SD. Participants will also learn about WASD Sustainable Development Goals Universities Initiative (SDGsUNi) interactive and smart digital platforms.
