About: Now in our 32nd year, the International Symposium on Sustainable Systems and Technologies (ISSST) is one of the longest-running research conferences related to sustainability and the intersection of technology, policy, and behavior. We are a non-profit (volunteer-run), vibrant community of engineers, scientists, professionals and educators, sharing cutting-edge research and forming interdisciplinary teams for future collaboration. This is a very friendly community that welcomes participation from both students and senior researchers; it traditionally has a strong tie to ISIE with overlapping attendees.
The ISSST 2025 Conference welcomes the submission of abstracts that apply methods used to define, design, assess, support, and/or implement technologies, policies, and systems for sustainability. Priority themes represented at ISSST 2025 will include:
• Agroecology, Industrial Ecology, and the Bioeconomy
• Human dimensions of sustainability
• Sustainability and resilience of energy systems
• Sustainability and resilience of infrastructure systems
• Sustainability education & communication
• Innovative tools and methods in LCA and sustainability analysis
• Other Creative Sustainability-Related Topics
