Introduction
Building on the success of the past two years, this forum has established itself as a valuable platform for fostering cross-disciplinary dialogues on pressing global issues. Our objective centres on exploring innovative, interdisciplinary solutions that can address emerging challenges facing our world today. This year, we continue to explore these interwoven challenges through the lens of interdisciplinary research, for further fostering new insights and deeper collaborations. We hope that these collective efforts will lead to more innovative, actionable and profound solutions, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable, equitable and inclusive future.
This forum is designed specifically for doctoral students (PhD in progress or newly graduated) who are conducting innovative research across diverse fields, including the humanities, social sciences, and natural and technical sciences. It offers a unique opportunity for early-career researchers to present their work in a collaborative and supportive environment, where they will receive constructive feedback not only from their peers but also from renowned professors and experts in their respective fields.
