Students:Monika Bosilj

1. I'm a Master student of Chemistry at University of Maribor. Beside chemistry, I am also very interested in photography and exploring new places, ideas and opinions... I adore skiing on nearby hills/mountains and long walks with my dog. During these six months I've learned a lot about sustainable development of hydropower. At the Spring School I would like to learn about other groups topics like geoconversation, climate adaptions, waste management...I would also like to deepen the knowladge about hydropower plants. 2. UMANOTERA's PROJECTS Plan B - Initiative for a Sustainable Development Project Plan B is a network of Slovenian environmental non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and experts, forming a broad civil society platform for sustainable development in Slovenia, along with other interested stakeholders. The primary objective of the NGO network within Plan B is to support long-term sustainable operation of environmental NGOs and to strengthen the qualification of environmental NGOs in Slovenia in two ways: by encouraging their active role in the democratic processes of policy formulation and in monitoring implementation of policies, and also by encouraging their participation and partnership. A secondary objective of the project is to improve the awareness of citizens and to encourage their engagement in environmentally-oriented public matters (http://www.umanotera.si/index.php?node=3).
