First, please allow us to extend our warmest greetings and welcome to you all to the International Conference on Social Science and Character Educations (ICoSSCE 2018). The conference is held in conjunction with The International Conference on Social Studies, Moral, and Character Education (ICSMC 2018) by the Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta in Yogyakarta, Indonesia on September 1-2, 2018 and October 27-28, 2018, with the ICoSSCE’s conference theme: “Social Science Education for Sustainable Development” and ICSMC’s theme: “Social Studies, Moral, and Character for Sustainable Development”, approximately 270 papers have been submitted at this conference but only 66 of these have been accepted for the presentation after a blind peer review process.

We do hope that this conference proceedings can enrich our understanding of the Social Science Education, Social Studies, Moral, and Character for Sustainable Development as well as become a meeting point for academics, practitioners and observers in education, character education and social sciences.

We would like to thank all participants who helped running this program. Hopefully, all the time and efforts we have spent for these two conferences may be beneficial and impactful for the future.
