In an era marked by unprecedented global challenges such as climate change, resource depletion, and growing socio-economic inequalities, the imperative for sustainable practices has never been greater. The 6th International Conference on Multidisciplinary Research in Management and Economics (ICMRME) aims to serve as a nexus for innovative research and collaborative dialogue centered on sustainability.
Hosted by EMAA Business School in the dynamic city of Agadir, Morocco, the conference will convene leading academics, practitioners, and policymakers to explore strategies that foster resilience, adaptability, and sustainable growth in economic and managerial contexts. With a focus on addressing pressing issues like ecological preservation, ethical governance, and digital transformation in the era of AI , ICMRME 2025 is committed to generating actionable insights that align with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The global urgency to transition to sustainable systems is not isolated from existing socio-economic complexities. Current crises, including the economic disruptions caused by geopolitical conflicts and environmental catastrophes, highlight the need for robust, multidisciplinary approaches. This conference seeks to illuminate pathways toward a sustainable future while acknowledging the intricate interplay between innovation, policy frameworks, and human-centric strategies.
