International scientific and practical conference

‘The Kakhovka Reservoir Disaster: A Perspective for the Future’
5-6 June 2025

Dear colleagues!
We invite scientists, researchers, teachers, young scientists, doctoral students, postgraduates, applicants of all levels of higher education, representatives of public authorities and NGOs to take part in the International Scientific and Practical Conference.
The main directions of the conference:
- Revitalisation of the river, biodiversity and habitats: observations and conclusions.
- Social and environmental consequences of the disaster: regional and local development and recovery strategies
- Transformation of the economy: ways of development ‘without water’.

The scientific framework of the conference: It will soon be two years since the Kakhovka Reservoir disaster occurred as a result of the destruction of the dam of the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant. What has happened since then? What are the consequences today, what has changed, and what can we expect in the future? Many questions remain open, some are already a fact of life, and we aim to form an interdisciplinary discourse: how nature in general and people in particular have been developing in the new conditions during the two years without a dam.
