The goal of the IICE is to facilitate the exchange of information among people from different countries and disciplinary backgrounds so that participants can listen, discuss, and consider new concepts to implement in their area of study.
We believe that a cross-discipline and cross-boundary exchange is beneficial and essential if we address the complex, multifaceted environmental issues of the present-day and the future. IICE attendees organize presentations, attend round table discussions, engage with keynote speakers, and obtain new professional connections in a safe and diverse academic space.
