Work has an impact on the safety and health of humans working in organizations. The organizations are influenced by the socio-political context. Organizations may be considered a system that may contain hazards, and which must be controlled to minimize the risk. Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) becomes a necessity for developing countries including Indonesia in ensuring that its citizens live and work in a healthy and safe environment. OHS also becomes a necessity for industries or certain activities in operating productively. A few such industries are:
• Formal industry sectors (oil and gas, mining, construction, etc.)
• Informal sectors (small–medium enterprises)
• Public service sectors (hospital, logistic, freight forwarding service, etc.)
In answering the global challenges that come from the current era upon OHS necessities in some industrial sectors and activities, Occupational Health and Safety Department, Faculty of Public Health, Universitas Indonesia, answers those necessities through developing and organizing scientific activities, researches, and community services. The department has developed five scholarly, research activities, and community services by forming peer groups, which are:
• Occupational Health
• Occupational Safety
• Ergonomics
• Industrial Hygiene
• Human and Psychosocial Aspects
Bearing in mind that the necessities in related sectors and the moral responsibility as an educational institute in delivering, spreading, and educating people on OHS's importance as values that are worth fighting in answering global challenges, the ICOHS 2017 forum was organized to unite academics, researchers, practitioners, industries, and policymakers.

The International Meeting of Public Health (IMOPH) is an international conference that was originally held as an expression of ASEAN public health students in implementing the Tri Dharma Pillars, especially in research. This international conference was also a means to establish cooperation among researchers, especially those who come from abroad. The IMOPH was first implemented on 31 October 2015 and 1 November 2015 in Indonesia with participants from five countries comprising undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, and practitioners. The 1st IMOPH resulted in a commitment by the participants to organize it every year with Indonesia being its initiator from year 1 to year 3. Therefore, “The 2nd International Meeting of Public Health 2016” was organized with the theme “Public Health Perspective of Sustainable Development Goals: The Challenges and Opportunities in Asia-Pacific Region,” and attempts have been made to expand the conference region from ASEAN to the ASIA-PACIFIC.

For the last decade, the top 10 causes of death across the world have shifted slightly. According to CDC (Center of Disease Control and Prevention), the deaths caused by communicable diseases have reduced and by non-communicable diseases have increased. This phenomenon is also happening in Indonesia. However, unlike in developed countries, the epidemiologic transition is not complete—communicable diseases remain a burden. The decline of communicable diseases is very modest, thus creating a double burden of diseases. Additionally, emerging infectious disease has also become a concern.
As the most reputed university in Indonesia, Universitas Indonesia, has taken into account to develop solutions to tackle these global health problems. This encouraged the University to actively seek global solutions and hold the 1st International Conference on Global Health—an event in which experts concerned and experienced with global health issues came together and held discussions. This conference will be held annually and is a distinguished event for experts, academicians, practitioners, and other people concerned about global health.

Food security and agricultural sustainability have become crucial global issues in the last few decades. Although a number of solutions have been proposed, the issues need to be addressed comprehensively from different points of views including agricultural production, biodiversity, conservation, and innovation, as well as a policy related to the problem. Therefore, all the experiences of respective researchers, academicians, practitioners, and professionals worldwide need to be gathered in a common unified voice. The 2nd International Conference on Sustainable Agriculture and Food Security was held as a scientific forum to unite ideas, visions, and missions as well as to arrange appropriate strategies in anticipating local and global challenges in the future. The aims of the conference were to identify opportunities and challenges with a view to strengthen food security and sustainable agriculture, establish a network among the related institutions, and to share ideas and recent findings on food security and sustainable agriculture.
