The TED4LAT PhD School (21.10. – 25.10.2024.) was thrilled to showcase the innovative work of our participating students through a series of insightful presentations. These young researchers brought fresh perspectives, presenting their latest studies on sustainable resource management, digital data integration, and environmental resilience.
Highlights from Student Presentations
- Cutting-Edge Research: Students shared their findings on topics ranging from remote sensing and climate data analytics to predictive modeling for ecosystem management. Their work demonstrates the potential of digital solutions to address critical sustainability challenges.
- Innovative Approaches: Each presentation highlighted creative methods for collecting, analyzing, and applying environmental data in real-world contexts, showcasing the ingenuity and forward-thinking of our next generation of researchers.
- Interactive Feedback: The sessions encouraged lively discussions, with experts and peers providing feedback and exploring collaboration opportunities. This exchange of ideas enriched the presentations and created connections across different fields of study.
Celebrating Future Leaders in Sustainable Solutions
The TED4LAT PhD School is proud to support and inspire these promising researchers as they push the boundaries of what’s possible in sustainable resource management. Their dedication and innovation are key to building a resilient and sustainable future.
Stay tuned for more updates and outcomes from our talented students!

We are excited to announce that PhD student Guna Jākobsone-Šnepste, along with young researchers Ieva Vītoliņa and Lasma Ulmane-Ooliņa, are participating in the prestigious BEHAVE Summer School on Agent-Based Modelling 2024 at the University of Brescia, Italy (Brescia, Italy, 2-13 September 2024). This event is jointly organized by the Department of Social and Political Sciences, University of Milan, and the Department of Information Engineering, University of Brescia, with support from the European Social Simulation Association (ESSA).
Guna Jākobsone-Šnepste had the opportunity to present her latest research, titled “Shift in Attitudes Toward Nuclear Energy in the European Union.” Her work explores the evolving public perceptions of nuclear energy within the EU, employing innovative agent-based modelling techniques to simulate shifts in societal attitudes. This important research offers insights into how policies and social factors influence public opinion on energy issues, a subject of growing relevance in the context of the EU’s transition towards sustainable energy solutions.
The BEHAVE Summer School brings together experts and emerging scholars to explore cutting-edge methods in agent-based modelling, with the goal of addressing key social, political, and technological challenges. The participation of Guna, Ieva, and Lasma underscores their commitment to advancing research in this dynamic field and contributes to the overall success of the TED4Lat project.

The Ted4Lat team is preparing for two upcoming events for PhD students and young researchers in Autumn 2024:
- a workshop on 26.09.2024 in Riga, Latvia (face-to-face and online), and a parallel activity at the PhD School in Paris in October. The aims of the workshop are: to consolidate the scientific cooperation between and extend the know-how about the development of project ideas and mentoring; Horizon Europe appropriate calls’ awareness and related topics will be also discussed; to exploit POLITO and INRAE experience in project management/ administration; welfare culture. Participation is free of charge.
- PhD School in Paris, France, organized by INRAE – LISC, will take place from 21st to 25th October 2024. The theme of the PhD School is “Modelling and Regulating Complex Dynamical Systems”. Some of the topics covered include:
– Data treatment and machine learning
– Agent models
– Socio-ecosystems
– Model aggregation and sensitivity analysis
– Regulating systems under uncertainty
– Forest Dynamics and Management Model
