Universitas Islam Malang Conference

Sustainable development is a development process for meeting human development goals while maintaining the ability of natural systems to provide the natural resources and ecosystem services in which the economic system of society depends. The achieved results in sustainable development is a condition of community life and the use of resources continuously meet human needs without undermining the integrity and stability of the natural system. Sustainable development must meet the needs of the present without sacrificing the needs of future generations. The achievement of sustainable development is highly dependent on the stability of ecosystems in a region. Meanwhile, the stability of the ecosystem is largely determined by biodiversity above and below ground.

The ASEAN as a region is basically rich and diverse in agriculture, natural resources and the physical environment. There is genetic diversity, species diversity and ecosystem diversity ideal for the basic and applied sciences related to agriculture and the rich biodiversity in our environment. Technology and engineering help enhance the science that benefits society and humanity. There is a need to nurture these diverse landscapes and resources to sustain our megadiversity status of Indonesia and other countries in the world. Incidentally, nurturing these rich resources needs an urgent interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary collaboration among ASEAN professionals in the fields of agriculture and natural sciences, social sciences, humanities and the arts. Additionally the fields of technology and engineering can indeed help make all our aspirations a reality. It is in this light that we have to initiate this 1^st International Conference on Science, Technology and Engineering for Sustainable Development (ICoSTES 2018) in the University of Islam Malang (UNISMA).
