From November 15 to 17, 2024, the third Environmental Engineering Youth Talent Development Forum was successfully held in Shanghai. The forum was directed by the Department of Engineering and Materials Science of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, hosted by Tongji University and co-organized by the State Key Laboratory of Pollution Control and Resource Research and the Key Laboratory of Yangtze River Water Environment of the Ministry of Education. Wang Zhiwei, Dean of the School of Environmental Science and Engineering of Tongji University, served as the chairman of the forum. The forum invited Qu Jiuhui, Hou Lian, Duan Ning, Peng Yongzhen, Yang Zhifeng, He Hong, Xu Zuxin, Ren Hongqiang, Yu Hanqing, Wang Hualin and other 10 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, including more than 300 experts and scholars in the field of environmental engineering to attend the forum.

The forum also had four sub-sessions, including water quality safety and water environment governance, multi-media pollution reduction and carbon reduction and resource recycling, ecological green restoration and collaborative governance, environmental systems engineering and risk control, and 48 young scholars made academic reports. The scholars at the site had in-depth exchanges on the development direction of environmental engineering discipline, research hotspots in the field and their own scientific research experiences.

This forum aims to build a high-level exchange platform for the development of young environmental engineering talents, stimulate the innovative vitality of scientific research of young scholars, promote the innovative development of basic research of environmental engineering disciplines, and help the growth of young scientific and technological talents in the field of environmental engineering.
