Award for best presentation in Freiberg

From 2 to 6 June 2025, the 19th Freiberg Colloquium of Young Researchers on the topic of ‘Responsible Consumption and Production in the Use of the Earth's Resources’ took place at the TU Bergakademie Freiberg. PhD students from European partner institutions presented their innovative research work, accompanied by workshops, company visits and networking opportunities.

At the closing event, Johannes Krämer (Institute of Chemistry of Polymeric Materials) was awarded the prize for the best presentation. The award recognised the most interesting research topic: Krämer is researching innovative recycling strategies for polyolefin waste.


The colloquium, part of the EURECA-PRO programme to promote SDG 12, offered young researchers an international exchange, practical excursions and intercultural training, including an intensive introduction to the German language and scientific communication.
