About the Journal
The Journal of Sustainable Infrastructure (JSI) is a specialized academic and professional platform dedicated to publishing high-quality research articles. We welcome contributions from a diverse range of authors, including researchers, lecturers, students, and practitioners. All articles should be in either English or Indonesian and must be original pieces of work that haven't been published elsewhere. Additionally, articles should not be under consideration for publication in other journals. Our central focus is on cutting-edge research and innovative designs related to infrastructure development, particularly those in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Current Issue
The growing awareness of environmental challenges has brought the need for effective mitigation strategies to the forefront of infrastructure development. As global populations increase and urban areas expand, the infrastructure that supports these developments must be designed and operated with sustainability in mind. The Journal of Sustainable Infrastructure (JSI), in its inaugural issue (Vol. 3, No. 1), seeks to address the critical importance of mitigating environmental impacts in the planning, construction, and maintenance of infrastructure projects.
Mitigating environmental impacts is not just a matter of regulatory compliance; it is essential for preserving the ecosystems and resources that future generations will depend on. Infrastructure projects, whether they involve transportation networks, energy systems, or water management, have the potential to significantly alter natural landscapes, contribute to pollution, and deplete non-renewable resources. Therefore, it is imperative that sustainability principles guide every stage of infrastructure development.
This issue of JSI brings together research and case studies that highlight innovative approaches to minimizing the environmental footprint of infrastructure projects. From the use of sustainable materials and renewable energy sources to advanced planning techniques that incorporate environmental considerations from the outset, the articles in this volume provide valuable insights into how we can build infrastructure that meets today’s needs without compromising the environment for future generations.
As we face the realities of climate change and resource scarcity, the role of sustainable infrastructure becomes increasingly important. The research presented in this inaugural issue of JSI underscores the necessity of integrating environmental mitigation into the core of infrastructure development practices, offering pathways to achieve the balance between human progress and environmental stewardship.
