European Researchers’ Night

The H2OforAll team presented the project at the European Researchers’ Night. The European Researchers’ Night is a science communication event that takes place every year in various European cities, with the aim of raising awareness and involving the population in science, bringing researchers and civil society closer together. Participants had the chance to interact with researchers from different  scientific  fields  (health, culture, security, digital, space, energy, climate and food).
