The Concawe Young Researcher Awards are held every two years in conjunction with the Concawe Symposium and aim at recognising Young Researchers in the field of Health, Air Quality & Emissions, Water, and Fuel Quality & Vehicle Emissions for their research and innovation programme in the final year of their academic cycle.
