From 21 to 24 August, a Biological Summer School took place at the Lider Lyceum in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi.
During the event, participants learned about various scientific and educational initiatives, including the EU-CONEXUS Enables project, in which Odesa National University (ONU) is an active partner.

As part of the summer school activities, students worked in teams to develop mini-projects exploring the application of Digital Twin technology to address local urban and environmental challenges. Each group selected its own topic and presented project outcomes on the final day of the programme.

The resulting projects focused on innovative and practical solutions, such as:

  • Optimization of operations at the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi fish processing plant;
  • Improvement of the city’s transportation system;
  • Protection of the Dniester Estuary ecosystem;
  • Preservation and restoration of the Akkerman Fortress, an important architectural monument.

These student-led initiatives demonstrated creative approaches to sustainable development and the use of digital technologies for community benefit.
