Climate change, biodiversity loss, environmental disasters, and natural resource scarcity demand a new agenda for organizational management, public policies, and scientific development. The advancement of digital technologies, global regulatory criteria, and pressure from civil society call for integrated, innovative, and evidence-based solutions to address today’s socio-environmental challenges.

In this context, the XIII SINGEP-CIK invites sustainability researchers to submit studies addressing major topics related to ecological transition, climate justice, regenerative economy, and the building of resilient societies. The event encourages submissions that explore these challenges from different methodological perspectives, whether through empirical or theoretical studies, involving qualitative and/or quantitative data. We seek research that advances academic knowledge and offers practical contributions for managers and policymakers.

We invite the academic community to submit articles that contribute to the advancement of knowledge in Sustainability, fostering the exchange of ideas, experiences, and innovative approaches aimed at developing solutions for the environmental, social, and economic challenges faced by contemporary society. The goal is to promote critical reflection and the application of solutions in different contexts and scales.
