MANAGING ENVIRONMENTAL KNOWLEDGE
20th International Conference on Informatics for
Environmental Protection (EnviroInfo-2006)
6-8 September 2006
Graz, Austria
http://www.enviroinfo.net/
In a world of rapid change, organizations are constantly seeking ways
of adapting and reinventing themselves. At the same time, the urgency
and scope of environmental problems call for both immediate action
and sustainable long-term strategies. To survive and flourish in such
a dynamic environment, decision-makers need to re-examine their
knowledge assets and identify methods to exploit them effectively.
Addressing this transition to a knowledge-based economy,
EnviroInfo-2006 focuses on the role of knowledge management in
advocating sustainability and environmental protection. The
conference investigates new ways of optimizing organizational
workflows, building communities, engaging groups in participatory
decisions, and supporting education and advocacy campaigns.
Since its inception in 1986, the EnviroInfo conference series of the
German Informatics Society developed into the leading European
platform for experts in sustainability and environmental protection.
In 2006, the series' 20th anniversary will be celebrated in Graz,
Austria, continuing the successful tradition of exchanging
environmental knowledge among the scientific community, public
administrations, non-governmental organizations, companies involved
in environmental informatics, and the end-users of environmental
information systems. Hosted by the Know-Center Graz and Graz
University of Technology concurrently with the 6th International
Conference on Knowledge Management (www.i-know.at), EnviroInfo-2006
welcomes papers on methods, tools, technologies, best practices and
case studies. Possible topics for submissions include but are not limited to:
* Environmental Knowledge Management
* Environmental Information Systems Engineering
* Environmental Online Communication
* Corporate Social Responsibility
* Cross-Cutting Environmental Themes
