Seminar for Ukrainian and Baltic Sea Region authorities on wastewater treatment standards and legal frames in the EU, 29 May 2023

PA Nutri organised a seminar titled “Seminar for Ukrainian and Baltic Sea Region authorities on wastewater treatment standards and legal frames in the EU” on the 29th of May 2023. The seminar was meant for sharing experiences gathered in the Baltic Sea Region about wastewater sector and for fostering sustainable cooperation between the Baltic Sea Region area and Ukraine, and gathered more than 60 participants from the region and from Ukraine.

The first part of the seminar covered legal and practical experiences from Poland, Sweden and Finland, and the second part presented ongoing and past projects to show what kind of issues are still relevant today and how they are getting tackled.

The event was recorded and can be viewed here. If the presentations raise further questions, you can send them through this link and we will try to organise a way to answer them.
