description: On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it is an honor to welcome you all to the Digital Conference “Milestones of Palaeontology and Quaternary Geology in Indonesia”, a conference in honor of the retirement of Prof. Yahdi Zaim. The conference consists of kick off by Prof. Yahdi Zaim, keynote speeches by his research colleagues from different countries, and sessions in which he actively developed, namely: "Human Palaeontology and Geoarchaeology", "General Palaeontology" and "Quaternary Geology and Sedimentology". This important event is the principal opportunity for Prof. Zaim’s colleagues as well as current and former students to honor his career and mark his role in the development of the branch of palaeontology and Quaternary geology in Indonesia. This conference will present and discuss integrative aspects of the fields in which Prof. Yahdi Zaim has been active throughout his career in palaeontology and Quaternary geology. Since the 1990’s Prof. Zaim has been actively involving and developing in palaeontology and Quaternary geology in various locations in Indonesia along with his colleagues and collaborators from Indonesia and abroad. In the educational scope, Prof. Dr. Yahdi Zaim has successfully supervised and graduated more than 80 students both in geology in general and in other more specific fields.
