ENVIRON Colloquium Proceedings

The Irish Environmental Researcher's Colloquium (ENVIRON) is the largest annual gathering of environmental researchers in Ireland regularly attracting over 300 delegates.

The colloquium was first held in 1990 in Sligo Institute of Technology and has since been held in most of the Universities and Institutes of Technologies in Ireland (and Northern Ireland). Each year the colloquium has a different theme and focus, and of course the research presented is always changing. We have provided a list below of past Environs (and themes, key speakers) with a link to the Book of Abstracts and/or Proceedings where available.
