BACKGROUND

Infrastructure is the set of structural elements that supports the day-to-day function, and influences the direction of human society. Infrastructure is an essential component of national competitiveness, increasing economic progress and reducing poverty. The infrastructure we are building today will shape tomorrow’s communities. Sustainable infrastructure refers to the designing, building, and operating of these structural elements in ways that do not diminish the social, economic and ecological processes required to maintain human equity, diversity, and the functionality of natural systems. Despite some progress, most developing countries still suffer from insufficient infrastructure access, quality and reliability. Moreover, infrastructure expansion often has come at the expense of the local environment, as well as complicating responses to the longer-term challenge of climate change.

The International Conference on Sustainable Infrastructure (ICSI 2019) will focus on sustainability in the built environment, presenting relevant engineering research, demonstrations and applications that contribute to competitiveness and well-being. This conference of civil engineers, urban architects, policy makers, technology experts, researchers, practitioners and other stakeholders in infrastructure development will provide a showcase for the latest developments and advancements in all aspects of planning, design, construction, technology, policy and education related to sustainable infrastructure and also offers a forum to discuss and debate future directions for the 21st Century. This conference provides opportunities for the delegates to exchange new ideas and application experiences face to face, to establish business or research relations and to find global partners for future collaboration.
