7th International Conference on Multidisciplinary Approaches for Sustainable Rural Development 2024 (ICMASURE 2024)
EMPOWERING VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES IN ADAPTATION TO CLIMATE CHANGE
The International Conference on Multidisciplinary Approaches for Sustainable Rural Development is a premier event arranged by The Research and Community Service Institute Universitas Jenderal Soedirman that brings together experts, practitioners, and researchers from various disciplines to address the complex and interrelated challenges faced by rural communities worldwide. This conference aims to foster innovative and sustainable solutions through a holistic approach, integrating perspectives from agriculture, economics, environmental science, sociology, engineering, healthcare, and education.
In light of the urgent and pervasive impacts of climate change, this conference will place a special emphasis on how rural areas can adapt to and mitigate these effects. Participants will engage in a rich program featuring keynote speeches and panel discussions that explore climate-resilient agricultural practices, renewable energy solutions, rural healthcare advancements, educational initiatives, infrastructure development, and community-based approaches to resilience and sustainability.
The conference provides a dynamic platform for networking, knowledge exchange, and collaboration, encouraging participants to share their research, experiences, and ideas on climate adaptation and mitigation. By leveraging the strengths of multiple disciplines, the conference seeks to develop comprehensive strategies that not only enhance the livelihoods and well-being of rural populations but also contribute to global efforts in combating climate change.
