It was another successful workshop in a great city going through major development – Milan, Italy
The workshop – Creating value through sustainable land and asset management, was chaired by Mr Claudio Albano and supported by Regione Lombardia generated substantial interest, both within and outside our network.
Mr. Claudio Albano opening the NICOLE workshop in Milan, Italy on 8 June 2017.
For this workshop, we had not only invited speakers within our network but also experts from other disciplines such as urban planners to broaden our horizon. The papers highlighted the massive challenges faced by many cities in bringing former major industrial sites back into beneficial use – not least Milan where this challenge is being embraced with great foresight and innovation. The conference dinner took place in a massive former aircraft testing building, which is now used as a modern art gallery and social venue. There was a strong emphasis on the importance of natural and social capital, with papers showing how the value of green spaces and assets can be taken into account when making decisions about the cost benefit of regeneration options.
The interactive session, which allows our members to switch their daily roles with others, generated a lot of discussions and laughs. Stakeholder engagement, soft skills such as communication is also necessary for us.

We look forward to continue our discussion in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Ingvild Bjelland fra NTNU og Hege Kristine Vågen fra Universitetet i Oslo er tildelt vårens studentstipend på 10 000 kr hver!
Invild holder på med mastergrad innen miljøgeologi, og oppgavens foreløpige tittel er Metodeutvikling av «kjemiske fingeravtrykk» med passive prøvetakere knyttet til vannprøvetaking. Hun ønsker å bruke stipendet til en studietur til University of South Bohemian for å få en innføring i metodikk, analyser og beregninger rundt metoden. I tillegg ønsker hun å få til en tur til Umeå for å få opplæring fra Dr. Per-Anders Bergqvist (ExposMeter AB, Umeå) i metoder og prinsipper for passiv prøvetaking, samt feltmetodikk.
Hege Kristine holder også på med mastergrad innen miljøgeologi, og foreløpig tittel på oppgaven er Organic carbon and ecological status in Kaldefjorden, Tromsø: Impacts from aquaculture operations? Hun skal være med på tokt høsten 2017 for å hente opp sedimentkjerner og ønsker å bruke stipendet til datering av sediment og stabile C-isotopanalyser. Masterprosjektet er i samarbeid med et større, multidisiplinært NFR-prosjekt (nr.244572).
Gratulerer til Invild og Hege Kristine og lykke til med arbeidet videre! Vi ser fram til å høre mer fra dere.
