On behalf of the organizing committee, we are delighted to invite you to the Tenth International Congress on Environmental Geotechnics (10ICEG), which will be held on November 1st to 4th, 2027 in Kyoto, Japan.
ICEG is a quadrennial premier international event on environmental geotechnics organized by the Technical Committee 215 of the International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE). The 10th memorial ICEG is conjointly organized by the Japanese Geotechnical Society (JGS) and follows the successful organization of the previous ICEGs in Edmonton, Canada (1994), Osaka, Japan (1996), Lisbon, Portugal (1998), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2002), Cardiff, UK (2006), New Delhi, India (2010), Melbourne, Australia (2014), Hangzhou, China (2018), and Chania, Greece (2023). The 10th ICEG aims to demonstrate that geoenvironmental engineers and researchers can contribute to addressing a wide range of global environmental challenges, including aging infrastructure, biodiversity, global warming, natural hazards, energy security, and the circular economy, in addition to traditional issues such as waste management and utilization, ground contamination, and ground improvement.
The conference will cover the Rowe Lecture, the ISSMGE Bright Spark Lectures, keynote lectures, and general presentations. The organizing committee plans to provide two options, allowing authors to choose between “a peer-reviewed full paper” and “a non-reviewed extended abstract”. Regardless of the type of manuscript, we will provide sufficient presentation time to encourage open and constructive discussions.
As we polish the details of the conference, we will update the 10ICEG website with further information, including detailed symposium themes, important dates, call for abstracts, etc. Please, keep the address of this site among your bookmarks for updated information.
I look forward to seeing you all in Kyoto in 2027!

Professor, Kyoto University, Japan
