Welcome to the Nexus Summit: Sustainability in a Changing World (NEXSUM2024)! This international conference is jointly organized by MOMENT ALPHA Sdn Bhd a startup located at Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT). Our aim is to bring together experts, scholars, researchers, policymakers, industry professionals, and students from around the world to navigate the nexus of carbon neutrality, environment, energy, food security, sustainability, and climate change.
The world faces complex and interconnected challenges that require a holistic approach to sustainable development. The nexus approach recognizes the interdependencies and synergies among the various sectors, including environment, energy, food security, sustainability, and climate change. By understanding and addressing these interlinkages, we can create effective strategies and solutions for a sustainable future.
NEXSUM2024 will serve as a platform for knowledge sharing, collaboration, and innovation. The conference will feature a diverse range of keynote speeches, plenary sessions, panel discussions, and paper presentations, providing participants with opportunities to exchange ideas, present their research findings, and engage in meaningful discussions.
