Abstract

This paper summarizes and analyzes the outcomes of the ECoGREEN (Empowering Transdisciplinary Collaboration and Green Entrepreneurial Education Towards Sustainable Campus and Micro, Small, and Medium-sized Enterprises in Indonesia) 2024 National Conference, which is promoting sustainable development through collaboration among stakeholders, including academics, MSMEs, policymakers, government, media, and civil society. The conference emphasized sustainability across various domains, such as environmental science, MSMEs, and governmental policy. It was to provide a platform for knowledge exchange and innovative solutions. The finding highlights the critical role of integrating sustainability reporting and adopting digital and eco-innovative practices, including the cultural heritage. The study also highlights the potential of exploring Industry 4.0 technologies, such as AI and blockchain, and sees some possibilities to enhance operational sustainability practices. Apart from that, some proposed strategies for MSMEs in overcoming potential challenges are discussed. Moreover, it exposes the significance of design thinking and interdisciplinary approaches in fostering sustainable practices. Designers, including the product-oriented designers and practitioners, may utilize the insights from this conference to integrate zero-waste principles and promote eco-based innovation initiatives, while the cultural resilience will be preserved.
