The International Symposium on Sustainable Systems and Technology (ISSST) conference targets attracting participants from multiple disciplines to focus on sustainability and engineering challenges, facilitating trans- disciplinary approaches. The conference will be held June 18-20, 2024 in Baltimore, Maryland. The cross-pollination of ideas among natural scientists, engineers, social scientists, industry representatives, and policy makers is necessary for developing sustainable solutions to the grand challenges facing society. ISSST 2024 will include the following themes/areas: (1) Agroecology, Industrial Ecology, and the Bioeconomy; (2) Human dimensions of sustainability (3) Sustainability and resilience of energy systems; (4) Sustainability and resilience of infrastructure systems; (5) Sustainability education; and (6) New methods and ideas that demonstrate unique partnerships, big ideas, and perspectives from non-STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) disciplines. The conference will also host special sessions to bring participants together in educational sessions, workshops, communications, and professional skills development. The conference will emphasize participation by students and young faculty members, as they are critical for developing the next generation of sustainable solutions. Funds will help expand the participation of students, underrepresented groups, and junior faculty from across the United States.The goal of the conference is to maximize impacts by building on the multidisciplinary participation. The conference will highlight the social dimensions of technological systems and proposed engineering solutions. Social equity, differential access and impacts, and environmental justice will be prominent across all six themes of the conference. A diverse group of participants will share their work in sustainability science and engineering through paper and poster presentations, as well as formal and informal discussions. The conference will also feature a variety of plenary/keynote speakers. All of these features will provide participants a venue for discussing visions, educational approaches, and challenges, as well as provide educators and students opportunities to expand research experience on sustainability in a holistic manner.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

可持续系统与技术国际研讨会（ISSST）会议的目标是吸引来自多个学科的参与者关注可持续性和工程挑战，促进跨学科方法。会议将于2024年6月18日至20日在马里兰州的巴尔的摩举行。自然科学家、工程师、社会科学家、行业代表和政策制定者之间的思想交流对于制定可持续的解决方案来应对社会面临的重大挑战是必要的。ISSST 2024将包括以下主题/领域：（1）农业生态学，工业生态学和生物经济学;（2）可持续性的人的层面;（3）能源系统的可持续性和弹性;（4）基础设施系统的可持续性和弹性;（5）可持续性教育;（6）可持续性教育;（7）可持续性教育。（6）展示独特伙伴关系、大创意和非STEM（科学、技术、工程、数学）学科视角的新方法和新想法。会议还将举办特别会议，让与会者参加教育会议，研讨会，交流和专业技能发展。会议将强调学生和年轻教师的参与，因为他们对开发下一代可持续解决方案至关重要。资金将帮助扩大学生的参与，代表性不足的群体，和初级教师来自美国各地。会议的目标是通过建立多学科的参与，最大限度地发挥影响。会议将突出技术系统的社会层面和拟议的工程解决方案。 社会公平、差别准入和影响以及环境正义将在会议的所有六个主题中占据突出地位。不同的参与者将通过论文和海报演示以及正式和非正式讨论分享他们在可持续发展科学和工程方面的工作。会议还将有各种全体会议/主旨发言人。所有这些特点将为参与者提供一个讨论愿景、教育方法和挑战的场所，并为教育工作者和学生提供机会，以全面的方式扩展可持续发展的研究经验。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
