Sustainable Development (planning, design, construction, operation, decommissioning and closure management strategies for water resources or tailings dams, e.g. climate change, sedimentation, environmental protection, risk management). 3. Hazards (design mitigation and management of hazards to water or tailings dams, appurtenant structures, spillways and reservoirs (e.g. floods, seismic, landslides). 4. Extreme Conditions (management for water or tailings dams (e.g. permafrost and ice loading, arid/wet climates, geo-hazards). 5. Tailings (design, construction, operation and closure for tailings dams; recent advancements and best practice) Sustainable and Safe Dams Around the World will be invaluable to academics and professionals interested or involved in dams. Un monde de barrages durables et sécuritaires contiennent les contributions présentées lors du symposium de 2019 de la Commission internationale des grands barrages (CIGB 2019, Ottawa, Canada, 9-14 juin 2019). Les principaux sujets du livre incluent: 1. Innovation (Avancées et techniques récentes pour l’investigation, la conception, la construction, l’exploitation et l’entretien de barrages hydrauliques, de barrages de stériles et d’évacuateurs de crues) 2.

Genre: Education
ISBN: 2494069653

This is an open access book. This proceeding consists of research presented in ICOSI UMY, on 20-21 July 2022 at Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta. The conference covers the topic of governance, international relations, law, education, humanities, and social sciences. The COVID-19 pandemic first time that occurred in 2019, has brought many changes that constrain all countries to adapt quickly. The crisis has shown vulnerabilities and gaps in several primary systems, including healthcare, social protection, education, value chains, production networks, financial markets, and the ecosystem. One of the efforts that each country can take to rise from the COVID-19 pandemic is through strengthening multilateralism, international solidarity, and global partnerships. Hence, this conference raises the central theme “Strengthening Global Partnership for Resilience.” This theme covers sub-themes that allow prospective scholars to submit their papers for ‘Virtual Conferences’ presentation under the following scopes: Social Sciences, Humanities, Educations, and Religious Studies. Presented papers will also get a chance to be published in our remarkable partner publishers. Through the International Symposium on Social, Humanities, Education, and Religious Studies (ISSHERS) and Asian Conference on Comparative Laws (Asian-COL), we hope that participants will express their innovative and creative ideas to provide benefits and contribute knowledge to strengthen global partnerships among countries. Finally, all 75 papers published in this proceedings are expected not only as research output but can be developed further into prototypes or evidence for policy making.

Genre: Medical
ISBN: 9464630701

This is an open access book. This proceedings consists of research presented in ICOSI UMY, on 20-21 July 2022 at Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta. The conference covers the topic of health sciences and nursing. The key lesson from the COVID-19 pandemic is that the goal of health innovation should be Health for All. To achieve this goal, health innovations must be regulated in such a way as to benefit as many people globally as possible. Some critical issues in the scope of improving medical education and medicine, biomedical science innovation, and increasing quality of public health for better life are discussed. The proceedings include articles from Dental sciences, Pharmaceutical sciences, and Nursing sciences. As technology developers focused on providing impactful solutions to global development challenges, we have learnt that technology alone cannot be a solution to the problem. It has to be seen in the context where the solution is applied. The world crisis should spur us all to explore a new form of globalization for the future years, one that prioritize collective investment in global public goods -including technological and ethical goods- to the benefit of all. Such global integration must enable diverse stakeholders from across the public, private, and non-profit sectors worldwide to work more effectively and sustainably together. The 6th International Conference on Sustainable Innovation 2022 brings out the issues of the Sustainable Innovation and Global Society. With the main theme of ““Optimizing Global Benefit for Future Wellbeing”, this conference is trying to play a role as a vehicle of showcasing scientific works from around the world, not only from researchers, lecturers, government officers, students and all parties with the same interests alike. Finally, all 51 papers published in this proceedings are expected not only as research output but can be developed further into prototypes or evidence for policy making./div/div
