Scientific Committee
All abstracts and proceedings papers submitted to the 7th EMCEI will undergo an evaluation and selection process in collaboration with the Chief Editors and Associate Editors of the Euro-Mediterranean Journal for Environmental Integration, as well as other invited members of the Conference Scientific Committee (whose names will be added once the evaluation and selection process is completed). Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by Springer (indexed in Scopus). The proceedings will include research studies focussing on the Conference Tracks (more details on Publications).
