The Aim of the Program:                     

After two very successful and effective roundtables in Hungary on the topic of Transcarpathia (Szolnok in 2016 and Vásárosnamény in 2017), this round table  is going to gather 30-40 participants from all relevant target group, with the aim of developing a list of priorities (database production), and list the most important steps for achieving the Clean Transcarpathia goals. On the first day of the program, a roundtable with professional lectures will be organized, including the workgroup, while a study tour will be held on the second day, during which a heavily polluted area will be visited, which we will use as an opportunity to present the micro plastic measurement methodology, as well as an application for polluted site location.

The top priority of the Program is to share and discuss experiences from the Waste Management Expo in Kiev and, based on it, decide what the most important professional future steps are. We should support implementation of newly adopted Ukrainian Waste Management Strategy, establish cooperation between our countries and organizations and discuss the most important professional steps in that context, with emphasis on preserving our environment and improving its status. In addition, we are also organizing awareness-raising campaigns in the region in order to promote public awareness and promote environmental awareness as well.
