This third symposium focuses on applicable cement and concrete technology for sub-Saharan Africa – international cooperation, innovation, research and capacity building. The rise of sub-Saharan Africa’s economies is significant to development. However, such development should be sustainable in order to increase the economic stability of Africa. In terms of sustainability, applicable concrete technology with relevance to the market needs is suitable to build up the infrastructure of a society. In the current sub-Saharan African market, there exists an enormous potential in sustainable research for innovative construction. Education is of key importance to innovation alongside a sound interaction with key players in the construction sector. The symposium includes keynote lectures from 10 international keynote speakers and technical papers from 25 young scientists, who were selected out of a high number of applicants based on the excellence of their scientific writing. The presentations of all participants as well as keynote lectures are represented in these proceedings.
