How do pharmaceutical residues from hospitals end up in rivers, lakes, and seas? And what can be done to prevent this? The EURENI project is helping healthcare professionals strengthen environmental and water protection.
Pharmaceutical residues in hospital wastewater can pollute water bodies and contribute to antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The project “WaterEDUCare – Tackling Antibiotic Pollution from Healthcare Wastewater” addresses this challenge by supporting healthcare professionals in integrating environmental and water protection into their daily practice.
