What's the conference about?
Information and Communication Technologies are perceived both as enablers of technological and societal change towards sustainable development and as drivers of increasing energy and materials consumption, thus leading us away from the goal of sustainable development.
IFIP's World Computer Congress 2010 will therefore include a Track of contributions on the relationship between ICT and SD, entitled "Sustain IT", with the aim of reconciling future Information and Communication Technologies with sustainable development (SD).
