We are pleased to invite you to the next seminar in our Environmental Science Series.

Join us during National Science Week on Friday 16 August 2024 to learn how EPA Victoria uses science to understand air quality.

Victoria’s Chief Environmental Scientist will lead our panel, discussing:

our role in monitoring air quality
insights into what we monitor, and why
