Our project, INTEGRAL – “Intelligent Geotechnologies for Resilient Agricultural Adaptation to Climate Change in Lao PDR,” was honored to be invited as a panelist in the session “Developing New Skills and Technologies for the Green Transition” on 18 November.

Dr. Inta Chanthavong, Assistant Professor at Savannakhet University, Lao PDR, delivered an online presentation highlighting the project’s contribution to the green transition through promoting climate-resilient agriculture, applying intelligent geotechnologies, building green skills and capacity, greening higher education, and advancing global green goals.

Additional members of the INTEGRAL team benefited from valuable insights and exchanges by attending the cluster meeting sessions online and participating in the online Erasmus+ speed-networking session.

Presentations and video recordings are available at the event web page.
