ICONIST (International Conferences on Interreligious Studies, Sciences and Technology) is aimed to become a respected international forum for scholars and professionals to discuss the recent improvement and challenges faced by Islamic world. The conference was initiated in 2018 by Lembaga Penelitian dan Pengabdian Masyarakat (LP2M) State Islamic University (UIN) Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta and was intended to become a discussion forum to disseminate science and technological research and insights, especially in the field of Islamic studies, information technology, natural and social science, and humanities.

This year, our conference theme is “Transformation, Innovation, and Recovery: Resilient Society after the Outbreak”. Slow but sure, our world is starting to recover from the Covid-19 pandemic. However, there are still some difficulties that we must overcome together. Global situation such as the Russia-Ukraine War, the threat of a global recession, as well as crises of energy and food resources in various regions, could hamper the recovery process. Transformation and innovation from various scientific backgrounds to accelerate recovery will be urgently needed. Through this conference, academics, scientists, policy makers, lecturers and students can conduct intellectual dialogue and debate on the multi-faceted issues relating to our situation nowadays. We also expect that 5^th ICONIST 2022 will find the best solution and effective Islamic development model in order to create superior human capitals who are adept in the current milieu. As we work together, we will achieve recovery together, recovery stronger.

This year LP2M UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta is proudly collaborated with LP2M Universitas Hindu Negeri I Gusti Bagus Sugriwa Denpasar to hold the 5^th ICONIST 2022.
