SCIENCE PROGRAMME


Short summary of questionnaire responses (40 participants / 29 respondents) is listed below:

Overall Evaluation (Very Valuable - 90%, Useful 10%)

  • Excellent opportunity to meet researchers and specialists of different fields from different countries and with different problems.
  • Very interesting, useful and well organized with excellent opportunity to investigate the status of micropollutants.
  • Excellent workshop regarding the scientific, technical as well as social, friendly environment.
  • Excellent review of the state of art in urban hydraulics and water quality.
  • Very well organized, good speakers, international environment and multidisciplinary approach - an experience to repeat.
  • Workshop Objectives - sharing knowledge on dangerous pollutants (Xenobiotics) in urban water cycle and fostering international collaboration – both met.

Content and Structure (Very Valuable - 86%, Useful - 14%)

  • Well balanced mix of presentations, scientific as well as practical presentations.
  • Adequate over-all amount of lectures and participants allowing enough time for discussions, good correlations of presentations - questions - discussing.
  • Good diversity of participants and themes, talks were almost always well prepared and nicely delivered.
  • Wide range of topics related to the main issue of Xenobiotics, very balanced between countries with different problems.
  • This workshop pays less attention to Xenobiotics ecotoxicology and biological evaluation. Ecotoxicological part (impact assessment) could be partly extended and more ecotoxicologist might be invited.
  • Would have liked to see more in deep discussion of problems of developing countries.

Organizational Aspects (Worked well - 97%, Problem - 3%)

  • Superb accommodation, nice hotel with very friendly staff and with possibilities to relax.
  • Excellent arrangements of social events (wine cellar, trip to the Chateau Lednice and its surrounding).
  • Pleasant traditional Czech food - very tasty, but too much.
  • Very good also for vegetarians (vegetarian friendly).
  • Travel arrangements - good organised, just few delays, due to traffic.
  • Everything worked well from every angle.
  • Excellent organization over all the details.
