Prioritization Workshop

ZeroPM’s second workshop, 19th and 20th of September 2024

Links and Resources from the ZeroPM Prioritization workshop #ZeroPMWorkshop

ZeroPM proudly hosted the workshop:

Achieving Zero Pollution of Persistent and Mobile Substances: Prioritization through Substance Grouping and Risk Assessment 

19th and 20th of September 2024
UBA Conference Center in Dessau-Roßlau, Germany 

The workshop was an opportunity to interact with experts and authorities on prioritization strategies for the prevention and removal of PMT/vPvM substances, with a particular focus on human exposure via drinking water.

Here you will find a teaser trailer and the program for the workshop. Below many of the individual presentations can be downloaded and video recordings of most presentations can be watched.
