Conferences

ZEMCH stands for “Zero Energy Mass Custom Home”. ZEMCH encourages participation of researchers, scholars, manufacturers, policy makers, graduate students and general stakeholders tackling issues arising in the delivery of socially, economically, environmentally and humanly sustainable built environments, which accommodate people with different socio-economic backgrounds in developed and developing countries.

ZEMCH pursues its objectives through international industry-academia collaborative study tours, international conferences and workshops supported by a solid network of over 900 global partners from academia, industry and government, based in over 45 countries.  Since 2012, ZEMCH has organized conferences and events across the globe.  Past conferences have taken place in Europe, the United States, South America, Asia and Australia. It is the first time that the ZEMCH conference comes to the Middle East, a region of fast growth and urbanization under extreme climate making it an intriguing and urgent journey for a sustainable built environment and climate resilience.

Hence, this exceptional networking conference with renowned expert speakers, academicians, researchers, industrial representatives, policy-makers and general stakeholders, aims to foster discussions in a diverse range of topics including social, environmental and economic sustainability, mass customization and personalization, renewable energy and technology, housing and prefabrication, building performance evaluation and simulation, users behavior and human centered design, green economy and policies. It also hoped to inspire participants from a wide array of themes and interest to initiate collaborations within and across disciplines in the pursuit of a sustainable and healthy living.

The conference takes place in the state-of-the-art campus of the United Arab Emirates University, in the heart of the oasis city of Al Ain, Emirate of Abu Dhabi. The Emirate is also privileged to house the first world zero-carbon city in the desert, Masdar City. Another great opportunity is that ZEMCH 2021 also coincides with the World Expo 2021 in Dubai. These opportunities and others are part of the technical and social tours scheduled during ZEMCH 2021 conference to complement your scientific event. 

Prospective authors are invited to submit abstracts and short or full papers in electronic format using our conference submission system.
