This is an exceptional platform for researchers/academics/innovators/scientists/practitioners to discuss contemporary phenomena shaping human development from multiple vantage points. Many topics of the multi-disciplinary nature as a response to everyday challenges faced in both developing and developed world contexts will be discussed.


Call For Papers

Innovation and knowledge are two entities steadily positioning themselves as the engine of any meaningful socio-economic and cultural endeavor that leads to production. Innovation is brought about by pursuing blue oceans with a goal of improving human life or in pursuit of solutions to known human problems, coming up with new products or new ways of doing things. The end result of innovation is a contribution to the body of knowledge in any given field of inquiry.
Therefore, it can arguably be posited that innovation sharing is one of the key ingredients to a contemporary knowledge citizenship. Putting innovation in the public domain enables other experts to add their perspective to the innovation so that eventually the innovation logically and coherently dovetails to the universal and contextual setting of societal needs. Further, radical innovation brilliance is a cornerstone for any production-driven development of a state.
Perfecting on the lessons learnt on the IMDC2017 and IMDC2018, IMDC2024 aims to accord chance and international platform to everyone intending to showcase their innovations (artifact development, product development or knowledge innovation) in different fields for the advancement of humanity. The conference provides an excellent opportunity for your work to receive that global expert touch given the multi-dimensionality in the different fields of enquiry.
Themes to be covered include any aspects of the major themes presented below. Please note that this list is collectively exhaustive in terms of field of enquiry – therefore you may literally submit any type of scientific research papers:

Track 1 : Computer and Information Sciences ( CCIS )

Track 2 : Engineering and Technology ( CCET )

Track 3 : Medical, Health and Environmental Sciences ( CHES )

Track 4 : Education: Curriculum Design and Quality Assurance ( CDQM )

Track 5 : Agricultural and Natural Sciences ( CANS )

Track 6 : Business and Applied Management Sciences ( BAMS )

Track 7 : Social Sciences and Humanities ( CSSH )
