The International Conference of Sustainable Ecological Engineering Design for Society (SEEDS) brings together global experts to focus on a sustainability agenda and the positive and detrimental changes that are taking place. Papers presented at the conference come from across a broad spectrum of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and bring forward practices to tackle the climate emergency and evaluate their impact. It addresses technical issues, measuring, monitoring, and assessing change, emphasizing the environment, infrastructure, and buildings, how they exist in relative isolation, and the possibilities for sustainable integration. The SEEDS Conference addresses the interdependence of people and the built and natural environments and recognizes the interdisciplinary and international themes necessary to assemble the knowledge required for positive change.
Christopher Gorse is Professor of Construction Engineering and Management at Loughborough University, with 35 years construction consultancy and research experience. He has written extensively in the areas of energy, sustainability, social sustainability, systems management, infrastructure, construction technology, refurbishment and management. Chris's multidisciplinary background established him as a leading authority on building quality, systems, standardisation and performance. Chris also holds Visiting Professor positions at the University of Suffolk and Central University of Technology in South Africa, engaging internationally on sustainability and lean construction. Chris is the founding Chair of the International Conference for Sustainable Ecological Engineering Design for Society (SEEDS) and past Chair of the Association of Researchers in Construction Management (ARCOM).
Bianca Drotleff is a Project Manager at the University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL), where she helps develop new thinking and solutions for businesses to accelerate the transition to a sustainable economy that enables all people to lead healthy, flourishing lives within planetary boundaries. She also sits on IEMA's Circular Economy Steering Group, where she delivers accessible content on the topic for members. Previously, Bianca worked at the Leeds Sustainability Institute, where she coordinated the International SEEDS Conference. Before this, she worked for CSR Europe, a Brussels-based organisation, where she supported their work on the circular economy, including the EU-funded project "R2pi - tRansition from linear 2 circular", investigating circular business models. She holds an MSc in Environment and Development from the University of Leeds and a BSc in International Business and Management from the University of Bradford. Throughout her studies, her research focused on circulareconomy as a solution to reaching the net zero ambition.
Beth Jones is a Research and Project Coordinator for Leeds Sustainability Institute based within the School of Built Environment Engineering and Computing at Leeds Beckett University. Beth coordinates the annual International SEEDS Conference and supports with the editing of the proceedings and publications, including the annual series of the Sustainable Ecological Engineering Design for Society (SEEDS) Springer Nature book.
Mohammad Dastbaz is the Deputy Vice-Chancellor at the University of Suffolk. Professor Dastbaz's research work over recent years has been focused on the use and impact of emerging technologies in society, particularly learning, training and the development of "eGovernment." Dr. Dastbaz has led EU and UK-based funded research projects and has been the Symposium Chair of Multimedia Systems in IEEE's Information Visualisation (IV) conference since 2002. He has over 65 refereed publications, including numerous journal paper articles, conference papers, book chapters and books on e-learning, eGovernment, and the design and development of Multimedia Systems. Professor Dastbaz is a Fellow of the British Computer Society and the UK's Higher Education Academy as well as a professional member of the ACM and IEEE Computer Society.
