Poster Session SPEED2ZERO Final Event

At the SPEED2ZERO Final Event, researchers shared insights into the interdisciplinary work carried out over the past three years. The posters are available in English only.

Some of the presented topics have already been completed and published; the corresponding outputs can be accessed via the links and QR codes included in the posters. Other results and products are currently still in the review or finalisation phase.The final outputs, along with a comprehensive synthesis, will be published over the course of 2026 and shared through dialogue with relevant stakeholders.

More information about the event can be found here.
