Today, human society is faced with the responsibility and the need to reconcile its development with the demands of humans, nature and the awareness that the Earth must be preserved for our generations as well as for future generations of people. Our generation and generations to come are entitled to resources and a healthy environment. The economies of all countries today are knowledge-based, as are the goals and priorities in macroeconomic management and the choice of appropriate economic policies, sustainable production and consumption, education for sustainable development, information and communication technologies and economy.


Goals, measures and priorities related to different areas of social development management and their links and impacts on economic development and environmental protection include management of: social values, quality of life and social well-being, population policy, social security, poverty, equal opportunities policy, gender equality, public health, housing and housing policy, regional and local aspects of sustainable development, as well as information and public participation in decision-making, environmental issues and conservation of natural resources, and rational management of non-renewable resources. It is necessary to develop goals, measures and priorities related to the protection of natural resources (air, water, soil, biodiversity, forests, mineral resources and renewable energy sources), protection from the effects of various environmental risk factors (climate change and ozone depletion, waste , chemicals, accidents, ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, noise and natural disasters), protection against environmental risk factors in various economic sectors (industry, mining, energy, agriculture, forestry, hunting and fishing, transport, tourism, etc.) , as well as the introduction of cleaner production.


The organizers of the Scientific – Professional Conference intend to bring together the scientific and professional public, businessmen, representatives of the state administration, local government and all other interested entities, in order to review the current situation and prepare goals and priorities for future actions.


The conference will be held after termination of the State of Emergency in the Republic of Serbia, at Technical College of Apllied Sciences in Zrenjanin.
