Description

We are happy to invite you to the final event of the Belspo-funded ELLIS project – aiming to develop policy-relevant tools to monitor and mitigate environmental health inequalities in Belgium.

This final event is set up as a study day on “monitoring and mitigating environmental health inequalities”. We will share with you the insights generated throughout the ELLIS project, and make the link towards future projects and policy needs.

The study day takes place in Room Storck of the Eurostation building, next to Bruxelles Midi train station. We offer you a networking lunch to conclude the study day.

The study day is open to anyone with an interest in this topic.

This event is co-supported by the Belspo BRAIN programme.
