Sustainability has come a long way since its early conceptualizations, evolving from a focus on balancing economic growth with environmental preservation to a comprehensive framework addressing today’s most pressing global challenges. From climate change and biodiversity loss to social inequality and technological disruption, sustainability now serves as a guiding principle for innovation, policy, and action across disciplines. Grounded in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it continues to inspire transformative practices and interdisciplinary collaboration worldwide.
The 2025 Beyond All Limits Conference marks the third edition of this esteemed event, building on the success of its predecessors, including the inaugural conference held in 2018. Over the years, this conference has grown in scope, impact, and participation, becoming a vital platform for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers to exchange ideas and advance the discourse on sustainability. Each iteration has strengthened its mission to foster interdisciplinary dialogue, challenge conventional paradigms, and explore innovative solutions to global sustainability challenges. As we gather for the third time, we aim to further solidify the conference’s role as a leading forum for cutting-edge research and transformative practices.
This year’s conference will critically examine the progress made in sustainability research and practice, identify emerging challenges, and explore innovative, interdisciplinary solutions that align with contemporary scientific, technological, and socio-cultural advancements. By fostering rigorous academic discourse and collaboration, we aim to redefine and expand the boundaries of sustainability, integrating cutting-edge research and forward-thinking policies into actionable strategies.
The conference will take a holistic approach, exploring sustainability through its environmental, economic, social, and technological dimensions. These themes will be woven into broader discussions on sustainable materials and construction, innovative design and planning tools, urban and rural development challenges, cultural heritage preservation, climate change adaptation and mitigation, economic models and financing mechanisms, human behaviour and perception, and education and capacity building. Together, these topics reflect the interconnected nature of sustainability and highlight the need for interdisciplinary approaches to tackle complex global issues.
We welcome a diverse community of scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and students to share their research, insights, and experiences. Whether you are a graduate student, early-career researcher, academician, or professional, your contributions are vital to advancing the discourse on sustainability. The conference program will feature keynote speeches by globally renowned experts and special sessions designed to inspire collaboration and innovation.
Presentations will be delivered in English, with each participant expected to speak for at least 10 minutes. All submitted papers will undergo a rigorous peer-review process, and accepted contributions will be published online in the conference proceedings, aligning with our commitment to sustainability by minimizing paper waste and promoting digital dissemination. Selected papers will also have the opportunity to be developed into full articles for publication in high-impact academic journals.
On behalf of the organizing committee, we warmly invite you to join us at the 2025 Beyond All Limits Conference. Together, we will challenge conventional paradigms, engage in critical reflection, and co-create a sustainable future grounded in academic rigor and interdisciplinary innovation. Your participation will help shape the next chapter of sustainability, ensuring a legacy of resilience and progress for generations to come. We look forward to welcoming you to this exciting and transformative event. Let’s continue to build on the strength and momentum of this conference, making 2025 the most impactful edition yet.
