9th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SUSTAINABILITY (ICoS9)



November 9, 2024 – November 10, 2024

The world has undergone significant transformations across various sectors in recent decades due to rapid technological advancements. The concept of Society 5.0, first introduced by the Japanese government, envisions a society that integrates advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and robotics into all aspects of life. Society 5.0 not only focuses on technological efficiency and innovation but also on creating high-added value for society by improving quality of life, promoting social inclusivity, and ensuring environmental sustainability. However, amidst this transformation, sustainability challenges have become increasingly urgent. Climate change, environmental degradation, social inequality, legal aspects, and economic disparity are critical issues that must be addressed promptly. Therefore, integrating sustainability principles into the era of Society 5.0 is crucial.When wisely utilized, advanced technologies can be powerful tools to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Against this backdrop, the international conference "Sustainable Development in the Era of Society 5.0" is organized to discuss, examine, and formulate strategies and innovative solutions to support sustainability in various aspects of life. This conference aims to be a platform that brings together stakeholders from multiple fields, including academics, researchers, industry practitioners, policymakers, and civil society, to share knowledge, experiences, and best practices.

8th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SUSTAINABILITY (ICoS8)



Sustainable practices and green economy policies can increase the resilience of an economy to shocks and crises. Countries can reduce their dependence on limited and volatile resources by promoting renewable energy sources, resource efficiency, and environmental preservation, making them less vulnerable to sudden price fluctuations and supply disruptions that can trigger a recession. Global Cooperation in Climate change and environmental challenges are global issues that require international cooperation. Embracing a green economy encourages collaboration between countries to tackle common challenges. Countries can pool resources, share best practices, and collectively strengthen their economies against a global economic recession by working together. Job Creation and Investment in sustainable industries can generate significant job creation. For example, a transition to a green economy can generate large numbers of jobs in sectors such as green marketing, management, and products, providing job opportunities in times of economic contraction.

  1. Reporting Standards: Authors of reports of original research should present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Underlying data should be represented accurately in the paper. A paper should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behaviour and are unacceptable.
  2. Originality and Plagiarism: The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if the authors have used the work and/or words of others that this has been appropriately cited or quoted.
  3. Multiple, Redundant or Concurrent Publication: An author should not, in general, publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is unacceptable.
  4. Acknowledgement of Sources: Proper acknowledgement of the work of others must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work.
  5. Authorship of the Paper: Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. Where there are others who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they should be acknowledged or listed as contributors. The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included on the paper and that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication
  6. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest: All authors should disclose in their manuscript any financial or another substantive conflict of interest that might be construed to influence the results or interpretation of their manuscript. All sources of financial support for the project should be disclosed.
  7. Fundamental errors in published works: When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his/her own published work, it is the author’s obligation to promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the paper.

  3. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest: Unpublished materials disclosed in a submitted manuscript must not be used in an editor's own research without the express written consent of the author.
  4. Publication Decisions: The editor board journal is responsible for deciding which of the articles submitted to the journal should be published. The validation of the work in question and its importance to researchers and readers must always drive such decisions. The editors may be guided by the policies of the journal's editorial board and constrained by such legal requirements as shall then be in force regarding libel, copyright infringement and plagiarism. The editors may confer with other editors or reviewers in making this decision.
  5. Review of Manuscripts: The editor must ensure that each manuscript is initially evaluated by the editor for originality. The editor should organise and use peer review fairly and wisely. Editors should explain their peer review processes in the information for authors and also indicate which parts of the journal are peer reviewed. The editor should use appropriate peer reviewers for papers that are considered for publication by selecting people with sufficient expertise and avoiding those with conflicts of interest.

Duties of Reviewers

  1. Contribution to Editorial Decisions: Peer review assists the editor in making editorial decisions and through the editorial communications with the author may also assist the author in improving the paper.
  2. Promptness: Any selected referee who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the editor and excuse himself from the review process
  3. Standards of Objectivity: Reviews should be conducted objectively. Personal criticism of the author is inappropriate. Referees should express their views clearly with supporting arguments.
  4. Confidentiality: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. They must not be shown to or discussed with others except as authorised by the editor.
  5. Disclosure and Conflict of Interest: Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
  6. Acknowledgement of Sources: Reviewers should identify relevant published work that has not been cited by the authors. Any statement that an observation, derivation, or argument had been previously reported should be accompanied by the relevant citation.

Conference Summary :

 

 

 

 


On behalf of the organizing committee, it is our sincere pleasure to officially present the proceedings, which is based on the 4th-International Conference of Graduate School on Sustainability (4th-ICGSS) with the tittle of “SUSTAINABILITY STUDIES IN THE INDUSTRY 4.0 AND SOCIETY 5.0 ERA“. Graduate School of University of Merdeka Malang as an educational institution takes a role in a small part in the academic field by conducting scientific discussions from scholars and practitioners in a conference forum.

The exploration of sustainable development issues is still very open, especially at the regional level. These issues inspired Graduate Program, University of Merdeka Malang to develop research and teaching in sustainability topics. The conference is based on the belief that there are a large number of contemporary studies that are interdisciplinary and in the form of regional case studies in different countries. The conference also offers issues of the issue of industrial revolution 4.0 and society 5.0. These issues are initiated by the world's developed countries, especially Germany and Japan, which are facing their own country's socio-political challenges. Nevertheless the background that remains the same and applies universally is the influence of data technology advances such as big data and 'Internet of things'.

The conference is intended to explore how Indonesia and other international audiences face these issues. We hope this proceedings as a collection of research articles will be useful to assist the Indonesian government in particular and other parties in the world in providing alternative solutions and challenges for sustainability in the future.
