Project information

APRIORA One Health Summer School is an intensive, practice‑oriented training created as a response to a recent revision of the Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (UWWTD). The course teaches a practical approach to prioritisation of wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) upgrades based on contamination risk methodology. Participants will develop practical skills in design and implementation of monitoring, sampling and laboratory workflows, as well as environmental risk assessment (ERA) and antimicrobial‑resistance risk assessment (AMR‑RA) of wastewater-borne micropollutants with special focus on pharmaceuticals. Finally exercises in pharmaceutical contamination risk mapping using QGIS will take place. The course offers knowledge supporting transparent, evidence‑based decision‑making aligned with One Health principles developed in response to changes in UWWTD.
