Engineers Australia has announced the opening of early bird registration for its flagship event 2023 Climate Smart Engineering (CSE) Conference, which will be held at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre on 29 and 30 November.
CSE23 will convene the industry to discuss the latest world-leading views and debate on solutions to address climate change, boost the circular economy, and uphold the principles of sustainable practices in engineering.
“Since its foundation in 2021, CSE has become a focal point for debate and knowledge sharing. CSE23 will highlight innovative engineering solutions that address climate change, but, more importantly, demonstrate that sustainable practices and environmental considerations are now central to the engineering profession whatever the discipline and wherever it’s applied,” said Engineers Australia CEO Romilly Madew.
“As creative problem solvers and systems thinkers, engineers are at the forefront of the fight against climate change. The profession stewards the delivery of mitigation and adaptation strategies to address the worst impacts of global warming and innovates to deploy new technologies for a clean fuel and energy future,” Madew added.
The subthemes for CSE23 are circular economy, resilience, energy transition, technology and innovation, regeneration, adaptation and mitigation, social impact, systems thinking approach, and business management.
Interested participants may submit abstracts that could help reduce emissions in various sectors, including energy, transport, agriculture, waste, buildings, infrastructure, coastal, manufacturing, defence, space, and mining.
Abstract submission will be open until 12 April while early bird registration’s deadline is set for 2 June.
