International conference on environmental and geo-information and communication

Through the rapid development of Information and Communication Technologies, environmental information and its communication have massively changed and assume huge challenges to approach broadly with effectiveness and precision the diverse environmental interests, issues and problems faced by major groups all over the world.

The involvement and active participation of all social groups is a requirement for Sustainable Development. The role that Environmental Information and Communication play in order to develop ways for Sustainable Development Processes and Goals is essential as they empower public engagement through access and sharing of meaningful knowledge, opinions, decisions, plans and actions, about their nearest living environments.
