This includes the management of single projects, mega-projects, programs, and project portfolios, as well as project-oriented organisations, which deliver projects to external or internal customers, and project networks or multi-enterprise meta-organisations created to deliver projects. We invite conceptual as well as empirical papers based on quantitative, qualitative or mixed methods. In our track, we run competitive sessions as well as development sessions, to help authors further develop their work.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Goal 6: Clean water and sanitation; Goal 7: Affordable and clean energy; Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth; Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure; Goal 11: Sustainable cities and communities; Goal 13: Climate action<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Primary Contact<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Carl Marnewick &#8211; <a href=\"mailto:cmarnewick@uj.ac.za\">cmarnewick@uj.ac.za<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><div class='w3eden'><!-- WPDM Link Template: Default Template -->\n\n<div class=\"link-template-default card mb-2\">\n    <div class=\"card-body\">\n        <div class=\"media\">\n            <div class=\"mr-3 img-48\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wpdm_icon\" alt=\"Icon\" src=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2025conference\/wp-content\/plugins\/download-manager\/assets\/file-type-icons\/pdf.svg\" \/><\/div>\n            <div class=\"media-body\">\n                <h3 class=\"package-title\"><a href='https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2025conference\/download\/gt10_00-project-organising-general-track\/'>GT10_00 - Project Organising General Track<\/a><\/h3>\n                <div class=\"text-muted text-small\"><i class=\"fas fa-copy\"><\/i> 1 file(s) <i class=\"fas fa-hdd ml-3\"><\/i> 189.16 KB<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"ml-3\">\n                <a class='wpdm-download-link download-on-click btn btn-primary ' rel='nofollow' href='#' data-downloadurl=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2025conference\/download\/gt10_00-project-organising-general-track\/?wpdmdl=5432&refresh=6a140eeb2c80d1779699435\">Download<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>ST10_01 &#8211; Multi-level Perspectives on Major and Megaprojects <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Major projects are often complex endeavors, having many different structural arrangements and linkages with organizations and their wider institutional environments. Although research in project management has addressed the embeddedness of projects within their context, we need to understand the specificities of major and megaprojects\u2019 institutional and organizational contexts, i.e. how actors collaborate, coordinate, and innovate in these temporary yet long-lasting, transformative and evolutive environments. This proposal raises the importance of understanding the multi-levelness of major projects; the interfaces among project actors, organisations and institutional levels; the governance issues, and the coordination of the people involved across these levels.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth; Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure; Goal 11: Sustainable cities and communities<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Primary Contact<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Juliano Denicol &#8211; <a href=\"mailto:juliano.denicol@ucl.ac.uk\">juliano.denicol@ucl.ac.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><div class='w3eden'><!-- WPDM Link Template: Default Template -->\n\n<div class=\"link-template-default card mb-2\">\n    <div class=\"card-body\">\n        <div class=\"media\">\n            <div class=\"mr-3 img-48\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wpdm_icon\" alt=\"Icon\" src=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2025conference\/wp-content\/plugins\/download-manager\/assets\/file-type-icons\/pdf.svg\" \/><\/div>\n            <div class=\"media-body\">\n                <h3 class=\"package-title\"><a href='https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2025conference\/download\/st10_01-multi-level-perspectives-on-major-and-megaprojects\/'>ST10_01 - Multi-level Perspectives on Major and Megaprojects<\/a><\/h3>\n                <div class=\"text-muted text-small\"><i class=\"fas fa-copy\"><\/i> 1 file(s) <i class=\"fas fa-hdd ml-3\"><\/i> 189.16 KB<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"ml-3\">\n                <a class='wpdm-download-link download-on-click btn btn-primary ' rel='nofollow' href='#' data-downloadurl=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2025conference\/download\/st10_01-multi-level-perspectives-on-major-and-megaprojects\/?wpdmdl=5435&refresh=6a140eeb301951779699435\">Download<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>ST10_02 &#8211; Project and Society<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">This track explores how project management addresses &#8216;Grand&#8217; challenges, focusing on sustainability, stakeholder engagement, and the potential &#8216;dark side&#8217; of projects, such as corruption and modern slavery. It examines the bidirectional relationship between projects and society, highlighting how projects contribute to achieving goals like sustainable development, while also being shaped by societal pressures. Additionally, the emerging intersection between stakeholder governance and joint value creation is emphasized, pointing to a need for further research on cooperative structures in project organizations. We invite bold, innovative research that links the long-term vision of Grand challenges to the temporality of projects.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Goal 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure; Goal 11: Sustainable cities and communities; Goal 12: Responsible consumption and production; Goal 13: Climate action<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Primary Contact<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Francesco \u00a0Di Maddaloni &#8211; <a href=\"mailto:f.dimaddaloni@ucl.ac.uk\">f.dimaddaloni@ucl.ac.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<div class='w3eden'><!-- WPDM Link Template: Default Template -->\n\n<div class=\"link-template-default card mb-2\">\n    <div class=\"card-body\">\n        <div class=\"media\">\n            <div class=\"mr-3 img-48\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wpdm_icon\" alt=\"Icon\" src=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2025conference\/wp-content\/plugins\/download-manager\/assets\/file-type-icons\/pdf.svg\" \/><\/div>\n            <div class=\"media-body\">\n                <h3 class=\"package-title\"><a href='https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2025conference\/download\/st10_02-project-and-society-4\/'>ST10_02 \u2013 Project and Society<\/a><\/h3>\n                <div class=\"text-muted text-small\"><i class=\"fas fa-copy\"><\/i> 1 file(s) <i class=\"fas fa-hdd ml-3\"><\/i> 281.59 KB<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"ml-3\">\n                <a class='wpdm-download-link download-on-click btn btn-primary ' rel='nofollow' href='#' data-downloadurl=\"https:\/\/conferences.euram.academy\/2025conference\/download\/st10_02-project-and-society-4\/?wpdmdl=5781&refresh=6a140eeb335881779699435\">Download<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"ConnectiveDocSignExtentionInstalled\" data-extension-version=\"1.0.4\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-9n9at-5138f262e70da08cb11f410cc2da322e\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-9n9at-5138f262e70da08cb11f410cc2da322e{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-9n9at-5138f262e70da08cb11f410cc2da322e .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-9n9at-5138f262e70da08cb11f410cc2da322e .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-9n9at-5138f262e70da08cb11f410cc2da322e av-special-heading-h3  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_full '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >PROJECT ORGANISING SIG TRACKS <\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-arh72-2-40f5afa16ee6925eb52f891f922c4089\">\n#top .flex_column.av-arh72-2-40f5afa16ee6925eb52f891f922c4089{\nmargin-top:40px;\nmargin-bottom:10px;\n}\n.flex_column.av-arh72-2-40f5afa16ee6925eb52f891f922c4089{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n.responsive #top #wrap_all .flex_column.av-arh72-2-40f5afa16ee6925eb52f891f922c4089{\nmargin-top:40px;\nmargin-bottom:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-arh72-2-40f5afa16ee6925eb52f891f922c4089 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_heading  avia-builder-el-last  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-k9wwjvzb-1-4f3818c1cc7118c7f6e53dae0ceae913 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>T10_03 &#8211; The \u2018bright\u2019 and \u2018dark\u2019\u00a0 side of organising projects: Addressing societal and humanitarian concerns<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Projects are used to address societal and humanitarian concerns created by human activities, long-term challenges including those included in the UNSDGs, and barriers faced by vulnerable populations for advancement.
