About ISDC 2020
Dual Mode: Physical+Virtual
The 1st International Sustainable Development Conference (ISDC 2020) will be hosted by National Pingtung University of Science and Technology (NPUST) located in Pingtung, Taiwan on 27-28 November, 2020. The conference dates also overlap with the 96th anniversary of this smart agriculture specialized higher education institution who has been ranked by UI GreenMetric World University No. 1 greenest university in Taiwan for consecutive 6 years since 2014 and No. 3 and No. 6 in Asia in 2014 and 2019 respectively.
In particular, as NPUST marching toward the centennial, ISDC is serving as a collaboration-oriented platform to promote interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary and international cooperation. The overarching theme of ISDC 2020 is “Our Common Future”. The selection of this broad but important subject is to welcome various disciplines or even non-academic, namely practitioners, to discuss our common future topics in the age of Anthropocene.
To facilitate the exchange of best practices and innovative researches worldwide in the transdisciplinary fields of sustainable development, this year’s conference is divided into four topics, co-organizing with four NPUST partner universities – University of Brawijaya (UB) and IPB University in Indonesia, Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi (RMUTT) in Thailand and Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) in Malaysia. We are also specially delighted to be joined by Kasetsart University(KU), International Association for Agriculture Sustainability (IAAS) and University Network for Tropical Agriculture (UNTA) as our valued co-organizers.
Session Themes
A. Disaster Prevention & Recovery – co-organized with UB, Indonesia
B. Smart Agriculture – co-organized with UPM, Malaysia

會議宗旨:
科技無法帶給人類真正的幸福，科技也無法解決開發帶來的污染和災難。馬雅文化和復活節島的衰敗滅亡，都是過度開發造成生態無法永續的例證。唯有永續經營，才能讓地球持續支持人類和生物的生命。聯合國報告指出，到2030年，光是太陽能，風力和生質能產業，就將增加兩千萬個綠能工作機會。美國每四個工作者，就有一位會是綠領工作者。台灣綠領從業人員將有百萬人以上。預測未來每個工作，包括食衣住行育樂，一定都會轉變成綠領工作。
為達成培育綠領人才目標，本研討會將於2020年舉辦第一屆永續發展與綠色科技研討會（2020 1th Our Common Future & Sustainable Development Conference），以精進綠領與永續教育…….
