Conference Description

Welcome to the Nutral Conference in Religious Studies Evaluation on Digital Revolution (Reliev 2026), themed “Reevaluating Religious Studies in the Digital Revolution Towards Sustainable Development Goals”. This pioneering international conference brings together religious scholars, educators, technologists, community leaders, and policymakers to critically examine the profound impact of the digital revolution on religious studies and practices.

Reliev 2026 is dedicated to exploring how the intersection of faith and technology can contribute meaningfully to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and foster a more harmonious global society. The conference will showcase insightful research and innovative digital applications in religious contexts, highlighting the transformative role of digital tools in advancing quality education (Sustainable Development Goal 4) and reducing inequalities (Sustainable Development Goal 10) through enhanced access to religious knowledge and interfaith dialogue. Furthermore, Reliev 2026 emphasizes the crucial role of religious perspectives in building peace, justice, and strong institutions (Sustainable Development Goal 16), contributing to sustainable cities and communities (Sustainable Development Goal 11), and strengthening global partnerships (Sustainable Development Goal 17) through collaborative digital initiatives.

Join us in this vital dialogue to shape a future where religious wisdom and digital innovation converge to build a more inclusive, peaceful, and sustainable world.

Publication Opportunity

As part of our commitment to enhancing the quality and visibility of scholarly work, this conference collaborates with the ETLTC Conference Series for proceedings publication. Selected articles that have undergone peer review and fall within the scope of the ETLTC Conference Series will be published in their proceedings, as has been practiced in previous conferences.

The ETLTC Conference Series has established partnerships with Engineering Proceedings (MDPI) and AIP Publishing, both indexed by Scopus, offering a broad opportunity for researchers to publish their work in reputable international outlets.

Since not all research fields can be accommodated under the ETLTC Conference Series, the organizing committee is currently in the process of establishing contracts with additional publishers, including Scopus-indexed proceedings and reputable journals (Scopus-indexed / Nationally Accredited by Sinta), in accordance with the relevance of specific research fields.

Detailed information regarding the publication aims and the list of official publication outlets will be announced on the website once the contracts with the respective publishers have been finalized.
