LIVES-conference

Dear participant

We’d like to welcome you to the LIVES-event on the 20th of January 2022! A fully digital experience dedicated to our mission: litter free rivers and streams in the Euregio Meuse-Rhine.

What to expect

During the event we will dive straight into some interesting topics surrounding the subject of regional litter management. You’ll be able to witness a plenary session and even attend the signing of the Clean Meuse agreement. Because creating solutions for riverline litter problems concern us all, in every field, from science to politics.

That’s why your attendance in the network chat is vital to the LIVES-event. We hope to see you there during the Eat & Greet or at 14h30, after you’ve enjoyed our packed programme!
