It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the International Conference „Sustainability through Tradition“ which aims to bring together various stakeholders, such as members of the academic community, scientists, researchers, students, people from practice, policy makers and all interested parties who desire to exchange experiences, knowledge, research results, ideas and information, related to all aspects of sustainability and tradition as a partner in creating a better future. The aim of the conference is to explore how traditional practices, knowledge and cultural heritage can contribute to sustainable development. This applies to all areas of human activity because tradition permeates all aspects of our lives. Can tradition be our teacher and can we save tradition from being forgotten?
