The third School of Water Re-use kicks off: innovation continues in education!
Water is an increasingly precious resource and the issue of the water crisis is complex because it requires expertise from different disciplines. Climate change, population growth, groundwater pollution and water resource management require a multidisciplinary and global approach in order to fully address and understand the problem.
The course, co-ordinated by the University of Turin in collaboration with Butterfly Area, offers an articulated training course with international experts and professors from renowned European universities.
The frontal lectures are complemented by round table discussions and a poster session where participants can contribute on the topic of water management, water scarcity and water reuse.
The main objective is to provide participants with an overview of new perspectives and solutions to future challenges in this field.
The collaboration with Butterfly Area
Butterfly Area is a strategic project of the University of Turin within the innovative ‘City of Science and Environment’ Campus in the city of Grugliasco, in the Turin metropolitan area. It is an emerging ecosystem where companies, research organisations and institutions can collaborate closely with researchers and students, create shared laboratories, use experimental facilities and access the University's research equipment.
