PROMISCES at CWP's "Water Innovation Day"

16 February, 2024

PROMISCES was presented at the Catalan Water Partnership CWP "Water Innovation Day" on 14 February, 2024!

Our partner Maria José Muñoz from Consorci Besòs Tordera (CBT) not only told the audience in an elevator pitch about their tasks in the project but also explained Case Study 3. In this Case Study, CBT together with other partners is working on promoting the water reuse in the Besòs River basin. This is very important, especially in the dry areas of Catalonia where water restrictions and consumption cuts are often adopted due to the occurrence of severe droughts.

At the event, 15 innovative water projects were presented to ca. 135 people in the audience.
