The International Multidisciplinary Scientific GeoConferences SGEM bring together Scientists, Researchers, Educators and Practitioners from all over the world to exchange ideas, to define the research priorities in the fields of Earth & GeoSciences. Our overall objective is to propose potential solutions of problems related to the global changes, to contribute to the integration of environmental consideration into the decision-making process - to ensure that present consumption will not compromise the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
