Organized and hosted by UNU-EHS, the third PhD Scientific Seminar of WISDOM’s second project phase took place from June 10-12, 2013 at the UN Campus in Bonn. Together with the three seminars held in the first phase, this was the sixth such event that provided the PhD students with the opportunity to present and discuss their research results with fellow researchers within the project. Additionally, invited experts were also involved in discussions of possible synergies and the integration of research findings into the WISDOM Information System.
Invited international experts Asst. Prof Dr. Vo Khac Tri (SIWRR, Viet Nam), Dr. Trinh Thi Long (SIWRR, Viet Nam), Asst. Prof. Håkan Berg (Stockholm University, Sweden), Dr. Eren Zink (Uppsala University, Sweden) and Asst.
