(Analysis of the EU Nitrates Directive implementation (1991–2026): achievements, shortcomings and challenges for Ukraine.)

The aim of the event: to discuss European experience in implementing the Nitrates Directive (91/676/EEC) and to develop a roadmap for its effective implementation in Ukraine; to analyse mechanisms for monitoring water bodies, identifying areas vulnerable to nitrate pollution, promoting best agricultural practices for environmental protection, and developing a circular economy.

Key objectives:

• Block 1. Legal and institutional: harmonisation of Ukrainian legislation with the EU Nitrates Directive
• Block 2. Environmental monitoring: the state of nitrate pollution in water
• Block 3. Agronomic and technological: good agricultural practices and the circular economy
• Block 4. Social and educational: training change agents and working with communities
• Block 5. Economic and long-term impact: sustainability, incentives and post-war reconstruction

We invite researchers, PhD students, postgraduate students, undergraduates, lecturers from higher education institutions, representatives of government bodies, local authorities and civil society organisations to take part.
