Training program for students in Romania
Between September and November 2022, the leading partner of the LeNetEco2 project, Danubius University of Galați (PL-UDG), organized the training program for the target groups identified and trained within the project activities (Activity A.T2 Training Events).
The participants included in these target groups will constitute the groups of volunteers who will act in the actions of monitoring the state of the environment in the Black Sea discharge areas of the rivers and tributary streams. In addition to the mission of monitoring the state of environmental factors, the establishment of these volunteer groups also aims to attract a growing number of volunteers from other social and professional categories to cover, through their activity, a greater number of environmental objectives to be monitored in the Black Sea area, but also the development of cooperation between volunteer groups from the Black Sea riparian states, partners of the LeNetEco2 project, in order to achieve the project's objectives.
In the project area in Romania, the target group of students and young researchers was the second group of volunteers constituted in the project and included a total number of 84 volunteer participants drawn from Danubius University of Galati. They were organized into four training subgroups, 3 subgroups of 20 participants and one subgroup of 24 participants. The training program took place between October 5 and November 15, 2022, and participants from each subgroup completed 4 training sessions. The lecturers of the training sessions had at their disposal course materials specially developed for each category of participants, by the experts of the Lower Danube University in Galati who have been selected by the leading partner (PL-UDG) for the establishment of the Joint Research Team (JRT) of the project. These course materials were also made available to all participants. After completing the training sessions, the participants were tested based on tests developed for this purpose and received international certificates of participation.
