It is an expression of a dimension of our mission in this globalize world. It is in fact a constituent of our global responsibility. With no doubt, the development of economy has contributed throughout history to the betterment of different aspects of the daily life. Today, we are enjoying the gift of nature. Many times, we unfortunately take things for granted. Until one day, we found the nature that we know has changed or distorted beyond recognition, we are facing air pollution, global warming and tainted soil and water. Developments in the field have always continued to take place. Our conference today is a step forward on this long journey. Im not going to talk about the “why” and the “what” of this conference, indeed this I would leave to our guests, speakers and participants, to explore and share with us. However, I will simply underline another dimension of this conferences mission which is commitment to the community.

This participation of prominent international speakers in this conference will immensely contribute to our academic atmosphere.
