Core Themes

TISEC 2026 is structured around four core thematic tracks that reflect how technological innovation, scientific methods, and institutional strategies are applied to address sustainability challenges in real-world contexts. These tracks encompass sustainable resource management, production and urban systems, ecosystem conservation, and governance and education for sustainable development. 


TRACK 1

Sustainable Management of Energy, Water and Natural Resources

This track focuses on research addressing the sustainable use and management of physical resources such as energy, water, soil, air, materials and waste, where technological and scientific tools play a central role in proposing solutions.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

  • AI, modelling and software for energy and water management
  • IoT, sensors and smart systems for resource optimization
  • Renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies
  • Water treatment and smart irrigation technologies
  • Soil, air, waste and material management using digital tools
  • Circular resource use and efficiency technologies
  • Digital twins and data platforms for resource planning
