Improving Member States preparedness to face an HNS pollution of the Marine System (HNS-MS)

· Stakeholder meeting ·

We are pleased to invite you to the final stakeholder meeting!

The primary objective of the meeting is to present the project results including :

  • The outcome of the lab experiments
  • The HNS-MS chemical data base
  • The HNS-MS drift, behaviour and fate models
  • The HNS environmental and socio-economic vulnerability maps
  • The HNS-MS decision support tool

The meeting format will also let room to long discussion periods that will stimulate exchanges among participants on pollutions of the marine environment by harmful and noxious substances and foster future possible collaborations and follow-up actions (e.g. long-term maintenance of the HNS-MS DSS, new developments, capacity-building in other regions, regional risk assessments…)
