Last update: 12 hours agoRiver restoration: Slovakia will restore nearly 210 km of rivers and improve fish migration with almost €14 million in EU-backed upgrades, including fish passes on the Cirocha, Žitava, Turiec, Hron, Revúca and Poprad rivers and weirs near the Nitra reservoir—aimed at better flood protection and water quality. Science & creativity boost: A new VER 2026 evaluation says Slovakia’s public universities and research institutions improved the quality of science and artistic output by 40% versus 2022, with international experts reviewing thousands of outputs across 28 fields. Politics & environment funding pressure: Parliament again failed to open a no-confidence debate against Finance Minister Ladislav Kamenický, with the opposition citing fiscal consolidation and tax policy—an uncertainty that can affect how fast environmental projects get financed. Diplomacy with a sustainability message: At the G7 in Evian, PM Modi pushed for solidarity-based partnerships and stressed “sustainable and prosperous” development, while also highlighting India’s disaster-resilience and climate-related initiatives. Local conservation angle: The river works directly support nature conservation and fisheries, making this week’s biggest environmental win for Slovakia’s waterways.
