Summer school on the evaluation of air, soil and water pollution in support to the European Green Deal : a holistic approach

The Joint Research Center organised the "Summer school on the evaluation of air, soil and water pollution in support to the European Green Deal: a holistic approach" from 4-8 September 2023, in Novi Sad, Serbia. This event was organized in partnership with the University of Novi Sad (UNS) and with contribution from the University of Belgrade (UoB). The outcome of this activity contributed to the Western Balkans Agenda on Innovation. During this event, advanced students and young scientists from the Western Balkans were able to improve their green skills by having access and run JRC evaluation tools, participate in practical exercises and demonstrations related to emissions measurements, perform laboratory analysis and interpret the results together with the trainers. The students at the Summer school demonstrated a high level of motivation; the valuable feedback from the participants illustrates the importance of this type of events for enhancing green skills in support to a more sustainable and resource-efficient society.
