Ecochemistry Education for Sustainable Development Workshop (EcoChemSD-WS'2020) co-located with The International Conference on Sustainable Futures: Environmental, Technological, Social and Economic Matters (ICSF 2020). The International Conference on Sustainable Futures: Environmental, Technological, Social and Economic Matters (ICSF) is a peer-reviewed international conference, which is the premier interdisciplinary forum for social scientists, life scientists, engineers, and practitioners to present their latest research results, ideas, developments, and applications. The ICSF occupies contributions in all aspects of sustainable development, focused on the intersection of sustainability, environment and technology, and their larger implications for corporation, government, education institutions, regions and society both at present and in the future

Authors are invited to submit full (and original research) papers (6-12 pages) including surveys, tutorials, perspective / colloquia articles in workshop topics of interest through the EasyChair by February 15, 2020.

​Submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by three reviewers on the basis of technical quality, relevance, originality, significance, and clarity. If necessary, a fourth, additional reviewer will be involved. The Program Committee will use these reviews to determine which papers will be accepted for presentation at the workshop. The result of the reviewing will be announced to the submitting authors by email, along with reviewer comments, if any.

​Accepted papers written in English will be published as a special issue of the E3S Web of Conferences journal (eISSN: 2267-1242 / publisher: EDP Sciences) in two month after Workshop Day.

EcoChemSD-WS'2020 uses EDP Sciences two column format for the proceedings. Therefore, for preparing your submission please STRICTLY FOLLOW the E3S Web of Conferences Editorial Guidelines and Microsoft Word guidelines. References should use the Springer Physics style, as shown in the 'Key Style Points: References'.

• A single study is not split up into several parts to increase the quantity of submissions and submitted to various edited book projects or journals or to one journal over time (e.g. "salami-publishing").
• No data have been fabricated or manipulated (including images) to support the manuscript's conclusions.
• No data, text, or theories by others are presented as if they were the authors own ("plagiarism"). Proper acknowledgements to other works must be given (this includes material that is closely copied (near verbatim), summarized and/or paraphrased), quotation marks are used for verbatim copying of material, and permissions are secured for material that is copyrighted.
• Consent to submit has been received from all co-authors and responsible authorities at the institute/organization where the work has been carried out before the work is submitted.
• Authors whose names appear on the submission have contributed sufficiently to the scientific work and therefore share collective responsibility and accountability for the results.
