The International Conference on Logistics and Sustainable Transport (ICLST) is a premier event in sustainable logistics and transport. The conference geared towards academics from all disciplines, professionals, public policy makers, researchers and students who are involved logistics and supply chain management, traffic management and transportation of people and freight.
Logistics and transportation are integrated ensuring the movement of people and freight at national, regional and global levels. The world economy depends on the procurement of resources, management of production and the on-time distribution of finished products. Global logistic chains link world trade flows. This would not be possible in the development of efficient management and optimisation techniques. However, in view of its implication on global warming, it is imperative that the use of resources to enhance mobility be utilised efficiently.
Sustainable logistics is interdisciplinary, and as such needs to be researched, developed, integrated, and implemented into the entire supply chain. Central to this is the environment. This entails constant upgrading in education and applicative knowledge. Thus there is a great need for intensive and extensive research in analysing logistics activities to improve linkages between economic activities. This conference gathers expertise from academia, industry and government to candidly exchange ideas, share latest research developments and experiences.
