The
International Society of Environmental Geotechnology (ISEG) has evolved
as a registered non-profit professional
society of researchers, policymakers, educators, corporate
personnel and representatives of organizations who are active or interested
in the advancement
and application of knowledge in the geoenvironmental sciences
and engineering to sustainable development of all regions of the world.
Since 1993, the
parent group of individuals and organizations has organized
several symposia and conferences in North America, Asia and South America
to address critical
issues that rest on the application of technical knowledge
drawn from a diversity of disciplines. These events and related technical
activities
have drawn widespread participation, exemplified by an average
of 500 participants from about 50 countries in events that have been
hosted. Furthermore, the
results of deliberations at some of these events have been
directly put into public policies by representatives of government
agencies in many
countries. ISEG seeks to continue to promote scientific cooperation
among countries, organizations and individuals on geoenvironmental
issues.
ISEG
is headquartered at the Global Institute for Energy and Environmental
Systems of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, NC, USA.
