The IEEE SusTech 2021 paper submission deadline has been extended! If you want to submit a paper for consideration, the deadline is Monday, 16 November.

The 8th IEEE Technologies for Sustainability Conference (SusTech 2021) will be held online 22-24 April 2021, and will feature technical papers, posters and workshops.

SusTech explores the development and application of science, engineering and technology in achieving a sustainable lifestyle for humanity. It brings together scientists, engineers, technologists and scholars from multiple disciplines to hold a dialogue on environmental issues and collaborate on ideas to develop and utilize innovative tools and intelligent systems to address them. Attendees will learn about the tools, connections and proactive solutions to take their sustainability programs to the next level.

This year’s theme is How Emerging Technologies Are Driving Sustainability.

Papers are solicited for verbal presentations from industry, government, and academia (including students) covering relevant research, technologies, methodologies, tools and case studies. Topics with policy implications are also welcome. Prominent experts will be giving keynotes addresses, plenary presentations and invited talks. Full papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings. And conference content that meets IEEE quality review standards will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting & Indexing (A&I) databases.
