The event convenes students\, researchers\, and practitioners to explore innovative approaches that integrate classical electromagnetic theory\, s ignal processing\, coding\, robotics\, artificial intelligence\, augmented reality\, the Internet of Things\, green energy\, and climate-conscious t echnologies with modern intelligent systems. Emphasis is placed on applica tions spanning healthcare\, sustainable energy\, environmental monitoring\ , and global connectivity. By aligning technological innovation with the U nited Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs)\, the workshop under scores the pivotal role of antenna design\, electromagnetic modeling\, and AI-driven communication frameworks in addressing societal challenges\, pr omoting sustainability\, and inspiring future leaders in engineering and t echnology.\n\nThis workshop will feature international invited talks\, pan el sessions\, IEEE student poster competitions on intelligent systems-enab led humanitarian technology\, IEEE student branch activities\, and IEEE me mbership drives. The best student poster awards will be selected\, and the corresponding projects can be financially supported for further research by IEEE AP-S SIGHT and IEEE AP-S COPE.\n\nThis workshop will feature inter national invited talks\, panel sessions\, IEEE student poster competitions on intelligent systems-enabled humanitarian technology\, IEEE student bra nch activities\, and IEEE membership drives.
