Conference I - The 2021 Global Supply Chain Management Education and Innovation Forum (China / USA) - 06/16/2021
Title : Logistics as an ecological issue... and why it's important
Author: Mohamad-Fadl HARAKE
Summary: By definition, sustainable development aims to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Thus, thinking about a sustainable future requires us to consider three dimensions: economic development, environmental protection and social integrity. This article examines the impact of logistics on the ecological aspect of sustainable development. Logistics activities, which are responsible for a large proportion of global greenhouse gas and CO2 emissions, are a direct gas pedal of global warming. However, logistics can also help to combat environmental pollution and support new logistics chains, such as those linked to waste processing. This presentation examines how the replenishment of supply chains is essential to the establishment of more sustainable logistics. Bringing together the positions of the public and private sectors, taking the environment into account in supply chains is an opportunity for all committed players to participate in the operational implementation of the flows required for a circular economy.
Conference II - Colloque International du Management Industriel & Logistique (CIMIL) (France / Morocco) - 05/29/2021
Title: Industry 4.0 as a factor in supply chain robustness: what implications for risk management? The case of supply chains in unstable environments
Authors: Mohamad-Fadl HARAKE, Mohamed HAOUARI, Oussam El HOUSSAINI
Abstract : Our paper aims to study the links between Humanitarian Logistics (HL) and Humanitarian Operations (HO) to Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) in the context of unstable environments (e.g. conflict, post-conflict, post-natural disaster, etc.). In this context, we wish to review the impact of Industry 4.0 on Supply Chain risk management in these environments.
Conference III- The 8th International Symposium on Service-Learning (ISSL 2021), Critical Service-Learning Across the Globe: Transforming Teaching into Social Action (USA / Cyprus) - 11/05/2021
Title: CREFEGE: a catalyst for transformational change and communal emancipation
Authors: Mohamad-Fadl HARAKE and Virginie NAHAS
Abstract: Linking transformational change management to conscious change leadership, this presentation aims to explore the involvement and impact of both higher education entities on today's young researchers, as well as the influence of international organizations in producing sustainable, non-profitable projects that have community impact.
Conference IV- III Congreso Internacional de Ciencias Empresariales (Colombia) - 05/21/2021
Title: Introducing public entrepreneurship in post-conflict countries
Author: Mohamad-Fadl HARAKE
Abstract: This study examines the working dynamics of transnational non-governmental entities known as "public entrepreneurs" involved in rebuilding the public sector in general and restoring public services in post-conflict countries to secure peace. The research highlights the impact of post-conflict peacebuilding through the initiation of new public institutions via entrepreneurial initiatives. Such entities embody new public models that are legitimized through explicit practices and norms injected by international "Institutional Entrepreneurs". In almost all cases, the change in managerial model met with strong resistance from the impacted communities, however, this was not the case in post-conflict countries, given the profound degeneration or non-existence of public sector structures - as well as being one (or the main) source of the conflict as such.
