Introduction:
Sustainable Development provides a shared plan for establishing a peaceful society now and in the future. In this connection, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, is a role model for developing a sustainable, peaceful, and affluent environment.
The UN has recognized “17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),” which are an urgent call for action by all the countries in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand in hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and help in economic growth, all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.
ICSDGBF-2025 is going to be a collaborative work of Women University Mardan, COMSTECH Islamabad, and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto Women University Peshawar. This collaboration is meant to create a permanent and multidisciplinary knowledge network on implementing the SDGs at a broader level.
In this collaboration, the Regional Connectivity Centre (RCC), SBBWU will play a vital role in attracting and enhancing international linkages and connections. RCC is already playing a great role in developing academic and regional connectivity, global exposure, sharing regional insights on a global stage, learning global trends, and access to funding and resources.
In this regard, the conference will seek to provide intellectual guidance and scientific evidence to the challenges of SDGs, promoting research and education to build a fair global community and more sustainable societies.
ICSDGBF-2025 welcomes colleagues from diverse areas of science, arts, and humanities, culminating in actionable conclusions on sustainable and secure development for policymakers and stakeholders. This conference is a platform for exchanging ideas, exploring innovative solutions, and forging partnerships to accelerate progress toward achieving the SDGs. Whether you are a policymaker, a researcher, an activist, or part of the private sector, your contributions are vital in helping create the global transformations needed to secure a prosperous, sustainable, and equitable future for all.
