conference will explore how galaxies evolve within their environments, bridging processes across six orders of magnitude in scale—from star formation in molecular clouds to the influence of the cosmic web. By combining multi-wavelength observations with multi-scale
simulations, we aim to uncover how local galactic ecosystems, large-scale structures, and cosmic history shape star formation, AGN activity, and feedback. Key themes include the role of the environment in galaxy growth, the evolution of these processes over
cosmic time, and the cascade of interactions linking megaparsec to parsec scales. We envisage an engaging and lively meeting in which we discuss the status, challenges and prospects for these specific areas of galaxy evolution. We also envisage intense discussion/brainstorming
sessions to summarize where we are, what we do not understand, what is controversial and how we can make progress in the next few years.</span></div>

are a critical nexus in the hierarchical structure of the Universe, acting as both the cradle and the stage for the complex processes of star formation and evolution. Within these vast systems, star-forming giant molecular clouds emerge and evolve, driving
the birth of stars and shaping the chemical evolution of galaxies. However, galaxies themselves are not isolated entities; they are deeply influenced by their surrounding environments, ranging from the local galactic ecosystem to the large-scale structures
of the cosmic web. This interplay between a galaxy and its environment is fundamental to understanding the mechanisms behind star formation, active galactic nuclei (AGN) activity, and galaxy evolution.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The
challenge of understanding how galaxies evolve is a truly multi-scale endeavor, requiring the integration of observations and simulations across six orders of spatial scales—ranging from the internal dynamics of molecular clouds on sub-parsec scales to the
larger-scale structure of galaxy clusters spanning megaparsecs. Such a broad scope necessitates a concerted effort to connect the local processes within galaxies to the larger-scale environment in which they reside, offering critical insights into the roles
of environment in shaping galaxy evolution.</span></div>

make rapid and meaningful progress in this area, a synergy between multi-wavelength observations and multi-scale simulations is indispensable. Observational data, spanning the electromagnetic spectrum from radio to X-ray, provide complementary views of the
processes occurring within galaxies, while simulations help model the complex interactions across scales, from gas dynamics in molecular clouds to the large-scale effects of cosmic structures. Only through such integrated approaches can we begin to unravel
the intricate relationships between galaxies and their environments.</span></p>
