Welcome to CSECity’21 – 2nd Congress in Sustainability, Energy and City, to be held in Ambato, Ecuador, 12-13 September 2021.
The canton Ambato is the capital of the province of Tungurahua and known nationally as the “City of Flowers and Fruits”, or also “Cradle of the Three Juanes” appellants earned so much for their culture as per its traditions, it is a vibrant populated center that is currently one of the most important capitals of the central region of Ecuador.
Most of the world’s population lives in urban areas, which is why their development must be framed in terms of sustainability. At a global level, cities have been affected by their accelerated growth, generating problems that put their sustainability at risk and have become exponentially evident in the pandemic. For this reason, cities and their regional environment are facing new social and environmental challenges that are inextricably linked to the economy. In this sense, academia should promote research and innovation in cities. This implies studying their sustainability indices (economic, social and environmental), their infrastructure and their society in order to identify their problems and propose solutions.
This meeting will bring together experts in sustainability, urbanism, energy and industry. This multidisciplinary group of researchers will allow the transfer of knowledge between academic institutions, raise research, and analyze how intermediate cities and industries are likely to change and adapt in the coming months and years in a sustainable way.
Overall objective
Identify challenges and opportunities to boost the sustainability of intermediary cities in the short and medium term.
Specific objectives
- Promote the elaboration of scientific articles in the fields of sustainability, energy and city.
- Encourage the creation of research networks between national and international researchers.
- To demonstrate the advances in applied scientific research in the area of Energy Sustainability.
- To propose methodologies to determine the sustainability indexes of intermediate cities.
- To project urban and methodological alternatives based on the current reality of the city.
- Propose methods of analysis of the city and its infrastructure through the integration of 4.0 technologies.
