The three-day workshop will be organised for current master's and PhD students at the Baltic University Programme (BUP) participating universities and other universities in the Baltic Sea Region (BSR), who aim to become future researchers, experts, and decision-makers. The event takes place in Hamburg on 22-24 September. The workshop is the result of collaboration within the BSR between the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences, the Interreg Baltic-funded project BALTIPLAST, and The Baltic University Programme (BUP), making this event also a part of the German BUP Presidency.
The topic of the event is ‘Young Researchers for a Plastic Free Baltic Sea Region’ and it will be held in a hybrid format where in the morning the presentations from the experts will be available to the wider public, while in the afternoon around 30 students will actively collaborate with experts on the strategies on how to implement solutions developed under the BALTIPLAST project and to transfer them across the BSR. Experts in circularity, environmental management, policies and plastic pollution in the BSR will present and discuss soft and technical solutions developed under the BALTIPLAST project.
