Webinars focusing on the circular solutions of HYDROUSA project in three Mediterranean regions.

Online Event

About this Event

How can we develop long term – low carbon solutions, to address water-stress in the mediterranean regions? How can we move towards a sustainable circular future?

As we kicked off the New Year, it’s time to have a deep dive into the HYDROUSA progress.

A series of webinars focusing on applications to each Mediterranean region will start in the beginning of March and continue through May.

HYDROUSA 2021 webinar series are designed by a community of water allies to introduce the mission towards a viable scenario of a circular economy. We address the challenges of water supply, wastewater and biodiversity loss – by extracting water from unconventional sources utilising state-of-the-art and nature based technological innovations.

The online sessions include an induction to the project of HYDROUSA, its theoretical approach, methodologies & actions, backed up by interactive slots with questions on the distinct on-site applications, & collective mapping of the webinar’s outcomes & future steps.
