GLOBAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH SOCIAL EQUITY, DIGITALISATION, AND SUSTAINABILITY
August 12 - 13, 2023
The global transformation towards social equity, digitalisation and sustainability is a multidimensional process aimed at creating a more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable world. In the wake of rapid changes to the global economy and new challenges facing our world, scholars, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers need to formulate new ideas and reevaluate existing theories, policies and practices. The conference will bring together diverse perspectives to examine the challenges and opportunities of this global transformation. IFBBE 2023 explores the role of Islamic finance and banking in adopting and promoting these interrelated themes and their impact on the world. With this aim, SDSB-LUMS invites submissions of 1000-word abstracts or full papers and case studies (5000 words to 10,000 words).
