2018 IMESA Conference: Innovative Infrastructure Solutions - Call for Abstracts

Abstracts for proposed papers are being requested for speakers to present at the 2018 IMESA (Institute of Municipal Engineering of Southern Africa) Conference which will be held from 31st October to 02nd November 2018 at the Boardwalk Hotel in Port Elizabeth.

Engineers are continuously searching for more creative ways to design and complete infrastructure and other projects. With all the challenges facing our industry today, we need to adapt and be innovative. This starts with the local authorities, where most of us perform some function to serve our communities. Innovative infrastructure solutions goes beyond the government corridors – it stretches into the ideas and solutions for taking municipal engineering into the future as envisaged and created by the engineers in South Africa.

We would encourage a broad range of topics typically falling into the following broad areas:

  • Ecological and Environmental
  • Financial and Social
  • Political, Legal and Regulatory
  • Roads and Storm Water
  • Transport and Traffic
  • Water and Sanitation


The title and topic will be evaluated for innovation, thought, leadership, business value, conformance to the theme and business interest. Only the best will be selected to go on to the next stage.


DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF ABSTRACTS: 4 MARCH 2018.
