Welcome to the 15 ^th Annual International Conference (AIC), a distinguished multidisciplinary scientific event proudly hosted by Universitas Syiah Kuala (USK) under the auspices of the Institute for Research and Community Service (LPPM-USK). Since its establishment in 2011, AIC has served as a vital platform for scholars and researchers from around the globe to share cutting-edge research, exchange ideas, and engage in meaningful dialogue to address global and regional challenges.
Over the years, AIC has demonstrated resilience and adaptability, shifting to virtual formats during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021, and adopting a hybrid model through 2024 to enhance accessibility and global participation. This year’s conference continues that legacy of innovation and inclusivity.
