Thomas Jefferson, September 6, 1789

Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."

The Report of the U.N. Brundtland Commission, Our Common Future, 1987

19th SDEWES conference was held from 8 to 12 September 2024 in Rome, Italy, and it brought together 700 scientists, researchers, and experts in the field of sustainable development from 62 countries and six continents, out of whom 570 attended onsite and 130 online.

We listened to 505 oral presentations and had the chance to see 91 poster presentations during four poster presentations. There were 65 regular and 12 special sessions plus four keynote plenary lectures and two panels given by some of the most distinguished experts in the field.

We hope you were as happy as we were as we again had the chance to meet, mingle and share new ideas in person at the eternal city of Rome at the biggest Sdewes conference so far.

All the photos, presentations, and videos of the most important events, as well as participants’ insight on the SDEWES 2024 will be available soon on the conference website https://www.rome2024.sdewes.org/media, but also at our SDEWES Talks www.sdewes.org/talks.php.
