Our UNSDGs Commitments
The 6th Advanced Functional Materials Congress will align closely with the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals (UNSDGs) and the global commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Functional materials play a pivotal role in enabling technologies that contribute to these global goals, particularly in areas like clean energy, sustainable manufacturing, and climate resilience. The congress will emphasize the development of energy-efficient materials for batteries, solar cells, and hydrogen storage, which are essential for transitioning to a low-carbon economy. By focusing on innovations in sustainable materials and renewable energy technologies, the congress will actively contribute to the global efforts aimed at reducing carbon footprints and promoting eco-friendly solutions for future generations. The congress will additionally support other goals by promoting well-being for all (Goal 3), sustainable water management (Goal 6) and climate action (Goal 13).
Publications
Congress Proceedings
The abstracts of presentations (short congress papers, maximum 2 pages including references) will be published after peer-review with an ISBN and DOI. Proceedings formatted with Introduction, Experiments, Results & Discussion, and Conclusion sections, limited to 4 pages, will be published in conference proceedings after the peer review process and will be submitted for indexing in Scopus.
Congress Journal
Full articles of congress presentations will be published in open-access special issues of the official journals of the International Association of Advanced Materials, Advanced Materials Letters, and Advanced Materials Proceedings, following the peer review process without any subscription or processing fee. Authors should carefully follow the Author Guidelines of respective journal when preparing their manuscripts and submit them using the Online Submission System.
Video Proceedings
Congress speakers will be invited to record their lectures, which may be published in the open-access video journal, Video Proceedings of Advanced Materials, following the peer review process. This journal provides a comprehensive audio-visual overview of the multidisciplinary areas of advanced materials research, innovation, and technology, ensuring that all lectures are documented in the literature.
