On September 18th, Professor Luísa Durães from the University of Coimbra represented our team at the 7th International Seminar on Aerogels in Hamburg. She delivered an insightful presentation on “Amine-modified Aerogel Adsorbents for Removal of PFAS from Industrial Waters,” sharing advancements made under the H2OforAll project.
The H2OforAll project was honoured to be present at the 4th International Conference on Disinfection and DBPs held in Almería, Spain. This conference provided an exceptional platform for researchers, scientists, and industry experts to exchange insights and advancements in water disinfection practices and the management of disinfection by-products (DBPs).
Our team had the opportunity to share the latest project developments and discuss innovative solutions aimed at enhancing drinking water safety.

We’re excited to announce that H2OforAll was present at the 6th International Congress on Advanced Oxidation Processes (CIPOA) in Brazil! Our team participated in this important event, sharing insights on innovative solutions for water treatment and disinfection by-products (DBPs) management.
We are thrilled to share that the H2OforAll project was present at the European Researchers’ Night in Coimbra! 🌍💧
Our team engaged with the community, especially the little ones, through fun and educational games focused on water science and sustainability. It was a fantastic opportunity to inspire the next generation about the importance of water quality and environmental protection.
In July, the H2OforAll consortium met in Coimbra (Arzila) for a practical demonstration of the water quality monitoring sensors developed within the scope of the project. This event brought together researchers and project engineers to demonstrate the technological advancements and capabilities of the sensors in detecting and monitoring contaminants in drinking water.
We invite you to participate in an online survey to contribute to the work done in WorkPackage 6 of the H2OforAll project. The survey will take about 10 minutes to complete,and we recommend using a mobile device for the best experience.
With this survey, we aim to understand the conditions that you would considerfavourable when asked to undertake action in your household to safeguard waterquality and your willingness to collaborate with the local water authorities. Theaggregated results of this survey will be used as part of a larger study in framework ofthe
H2OforAll
research project, and might be published as part of a research paper.
Any questions about the study can be directed to

The event focused on pioneering water management solutions and advancing sustainable practices in the water sector. It included a ZeroPollution4Water Cluster Workshop where the first policy brief of the cluster was presented, the Case Studies Inventory and key findings from the sister projects.
Water Innovation Europe aimed at shaping the European water-related future by offering new perspectives and insights from high-level EU decision-makers and experts of the water sector and bringing forward the latest updates and trends on new water technologies and innovations. The event took place on 17-19 June 2024 in Brussels, Belgium.
Inês Roque recently represented the H2OforAll project at the prestigious 10th Iberian Meeting on Colloids and Interfaces held in Coimbra. She delivered an insightful presentation and talked about water treatment processes.
H2OforAll is organizing a Co-Creation Workshop: “Future Challenges in the Drinking Water Sector – Public Engagement, Communication, and Raising Awareness” as part of the Winter School on Contaminants of Emerging Concern (CECs) and Disinfection By-Products (DBPs): Occurrence, Impact, and Elimination.
Event Details:
This workshop aims to address the pressing issues in the drinking water sector by fostering public engagement, enhancing communication strategies, and raising awareness about the challenges posed by CECs and DBPs. Participants will have the opportunity to collaborate, share insights, and develop innovative solutions to ensure the safety and quality of drinking water
We invite researchers, policymakers, industry professionals, and other stakeholders to join us in this important event.
