About the Conference
The 16th edition of IMS-ICON2025, themed “Redefining Innovation, Inclusion, and Sustainability in Humanitarian Supply Chains” focuses on the evolving role of supply chains in addressing global humanitarian and development challenges. As crises become more complex, ranging from pandemics and conflicts to climate-induced disruptions, the need for responsive, inclusive, and sustainable supply chain models has never been more critical. This conference aims to explore how innovation in logistics, data analytics, and digital tools can redefine the efficiency and equity of humanitarian supply chains.
It highlights the importance of inclusive practices that empower marginalized communities and ensure last-mile delivery, alongside sustainable frameworks that reduce environmental impact and enhance resource resilience. In a world characterized by uncertainty and interdependence, supply chains are no longer just operational backbones—they are strategic enablers of social impact. The conference invites leading academics, researchers, policymakers, and industry practitioners to exchange ideas, research insights, and field experiences that contribute to building more adaptive, equitable, and sustainable supply networks. Through multidisciplinary perspectives, IMS-ICON 2025 will serve as a platform for dialogue, discovery, and action in shaping future-ready supply chain systems with a humanitarian focus.
