Short summary

Capacity building and knowledge exchange with respect to enviromental restoration of ecosystems that have sustained damage due to the war in Ukraine.

This project is a cooperation between SLU and National University of Kyiv Mohyla Academy (NaUKMA) focusing on capacity building and knowledge exchange with respect to enviromental restoration of ecosystems that have sustained damage due to the war.

We work together to identify areas in need of restoration, discuss and then conduct a preliminary enviromental assessment, and then together develop tailored methodologies based on our collective experience for how these sites can be restored.
