Objective
Sustainable manufacturing has emerged as the leading paradigm to address the dilemma of maintaining a progressive economic growth based on production of goods and services without continuing to damage our environment or future economic and social structures. While manufacturing is a major driver of civilized development that provides high quality living standards, its impact can be harmful if not managed and minimized, e.g. it may cause damage such as depletion of natural resources, global warming and toxic wastes.
On 23rd-25th September 2013, the Global Conference on Sustainable
Manufacturing (GCSM [1]) is expected to attract representatives from
science and industry from all over the world to the conference
chair's scientific home town Berlin, Germany.
Sponsored by the
International Academy for Production Engineering (CIRP), it will be
the 11th conference in the GCSM tradition, which has already been
held in Istanbul, St. Petersburg, Abu Dhabi and Madras among other
places.In 2013 it will be hosted by Technische Universität
Berlin.
The conference serves as a forum for international
research institutes and industrial companies related to the area of
sustainable manufacturing. It offers keynote speeches, panel
discussions, parallel sessions and a poster forum.
