STRANIAK ACADEMY 2023:

TACKLING PLASTIC POLLUTION IN OCEANS AND RIVERS 

SUMMER SCHOOL & RESEARCH LAB in Debeli RTIČ, SLOVENIA

Application deadline prolonged until 15th of August!

After a 3-year break the Straniak Academy is back with a new concept and a new thematic focus! Increasing plastic pollution of oceans and rivers not only severely threatens ecosystems, but also undermines the full enjoyment of human rights. Against this backdrop, this year’s edition of the Straniak Academy focuses on plastic pollution in oceans and rivers. During six days, from 10th until 16th September 2023, participants will be able to take part in the CMS! Closing Conference with speakers from academia (law and sciences), politics, and civil society organisations, as well as develop own projects in a research lab.

CMS! CLOSING CONFERENCE in DEBELI RTIČ, SLOVENIA

The Closing Conference of the ‘Clean Mediterranean Sea!’ (CMS!) project will take place from 10.-12. September 2023 in Debeli rtic, Slovenia.

The Conference will bring together speakers from academia, politics, civil society and business to discuss in-depth the project findings and legal policy recommendations elaborated in the course of the CMS! study, as well as legal and factual issues in relation to the ‘ticking bomb’ of marine plastic pollution and possible ways forwards.
