After a two-year break the EMEA Workshop finally took place on-site again in June 2022. 77 participants from 17 nations had the opportunity to experience many interesting talks and poster presentations.

Material developments and ion exchange membrane based systems for energy applications will be discussed by representatives from research and industry with the focus set on anion exchange membranes. In addition to invited and contributed talks a poster exhibition offers scientists and especially young researchers and students the opportunity to present their work. A price for the best poster will be awarded. An opening presentation of the NEWELY project followed by a Welcome Reception and the conference dinner will provide additional opportunities for lively scientific exchange in a familiar atmosphere.
