Description


Objective: Decades of unregulated disposal of toxic wastes in the NIS countries have created major environmental pollution problems seriously affecting public health. The hereby project proposal involves the collaboration of specialised institutions from Russia, Ukraine, Georgia and Armenia, countries currently facing severe problems of toxic pollution in their ground water. Technical assistance is provided by a European Consortium of highly specialised companies (including three SMEtmS) and a major institution acting as overall coordinator, whose experience in the specific topic can be consider as global. The project will be focused on groundwater pollution monitoring, assessment, environmental management, early warning; training and civil awareness. In conjunction to the above, specially trained local scientific and technical groups will be created, that eventually take over the running of the project, during and after its completion.
