The LENS project and its stakeholder group has worked closely together in 2024, thanks to dedicated exchanges that took place in Leuven, Paris and Barcelona. This cooperation continues with a joint webinar organised by Dutch and German stakeholders under the umbrella of the LENS project.
The 2h-webinar on noise pollution mitigation, which is appropriately called the ‘Sound of silence’, will take place on 9 April from 10-12AM CEST.
The joint initiative aims to shed light on the externalities of L-vehicles, which has a significantly negative impact on citizens – both in urban and rural environments.
As the single EU-funded project with the aim to assess noise- and air pollution of L-vehicles, LENS is glad to support the initiatives of its stakeholder group by sharing their perspectives with a wider European audience.
