Participation of the CIRCLEMAN Project Team Members in the VII International Scientific and Practical Conference “European Dimensions of Sustainable Development” (May 5–7, 2025)
From May 5 to 7, 2025, the VII International Scientific and Practical Conference “European Dimensions of Sustainable Development” was held at the National University of Food Technologies (Kyiv, Ukraine). The event was supported by the Erasmus+ Programme and the National Erasmus+ Office in Ukraine, bringing together over 100 scholars and researchers from more than ten countries, including the USA, Australia, Germany, Austria, Brazil, Portugal, Spain, Greece, Poland, and Ukraine.
Over the course of three intensive days, the conference served as a dynamic platform for in-depth discussion of the pressing challenges facing modern society in the context of sustainable development. Participants presented the results of their research across a broad range of topics—from environmental safety and sustainable agriculture to innovations in renewable energy, the green economy, and environmental education. The conference also facilitated the exchange of practical experiences in implementing sustainability innovations across different countries and regions, and enabled participants to engage in discussions with leading international scientists who shared their perspectives on global trends, interdisciplinary approaches, and the future of sustainable development in Europe and beyond.
The English-language format of the conference ensured not only the high quality of presentations and communication but also fostered effective collaboration among representatives of academic institutions from over ten countries. This created opportunities to establish new partnerships, discuss ideas for joint research, academic exchange, and projects within the framework of European educational initiatives, including Erasmus+.
Members of the international project CIRCLEMAN also took an active part in the conference. The project coordinator, Olena Kuznietsova, along with project team members Prof. Mykhailo Baranovskyy, Assoc. Prof. Iryna Korniienko, and Assoc. Prof. Larysa Yastremska, contributed to the scientific program. In particular, they presented two reports:
These presentations highlighted the key principles and best European practices in waste management, as well as the potential for adapting EU experience to the Ukrainian context.
Participation of the CIRCLEMAN Project Team in the XLIII Scientific and Technical Conference of Young Scientists and Specialists of the H.E. Pukhov Institute of Modeling Problems in Power Engineering of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine
The team of the Erasmus+ Jean Monnet CIRCLEMAN project took part in the XLIII Scientific and Technical Conference of Young Scientists and Specialists organized by the H.E. Pukhov Institute of Modeling Problems in Power Engineering of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, held online on May 14, 2025.
At the conference, the team presented a report titled “Resilience and Sustainable Energy Development Based on the Principles of the Circular Bioeconomy in Ukraine and the EU” (authors: I.M. Korniyenko, O.O. Kuznietsova, L.S. Yastremska, M.M. Baranovskyy). The presentation highlighted current challenges and opportunities for the development of the circular bioeconomy as a foundation for strengthening the resilience of the energy sector and ensuring sustainable development in times of transformation.
The report’s abstracts were published in the Proceedings of the XLIII Scientific and Technical Conference of Young Scientists and Specialists of the H.E. Pukhov Institute of Modeling Problems in Power Engineering of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (pp. 74–77), contributing to the dissemination of project results within the scientific community and encouraging the involvement of young researchers in the field of the circular economy.
