Yesterday marked the start of the meeting of all WaterMan project partners. The first day was devoted to
presenting the final forms of pilot activities concerning water reuse in partner countries (PL, DK, SE, LT, LV, DE), discussing experiences from their implementation, presenting the results of the first evaluations, and discussing with an international panel of experts who shared recommendations for further optimization of solutions.
The aim of the meeting is to gather experiences, evaluate the effects, and jointly plan the next steps towards sustainable water management in the Baltic Sea region.
SferaLab workshop finale
The finale of the WaterMan project workshop with young people from Braniewo - the last meeting within the framework of SphereLab is behind us. This time the Elblag Technology Park was visited by another class from the Senate of the Republic of Poland Primary School No. 3 in Braniewo, full of curiosity and commitment.
During the workshop, the youngsters:
tested simple experiments,
learned about innovative technologies,
learned how to save water and reduce their water footprint.
As usual, it was a meeting not only with knowledge, but also with real action.
Each group that took part in the series of workshops made its contribution to environmental awareness and concern for common resources.
We thank all students and teachers for their participation, openness and energy.
This is the end of the workshop, but only the beginning of real change.
SP 3 from Braniewo on SferaLab
WaterMan project - today again water was in the spotlight.
The Elblag Technology Park brought the topic of ecological awareness to the next audience - students of the No. 3 Senate Primary School in Braniewo. As part of the SferaLab workshop, participants learned how to save water resources, reuse them and how huge our daily water footprint is.
In addition:
conducted experiments,
learned about eco-technologies,
talked about water and the changes everyone can make.
Experiments, discussions and practical exercises made the topic of ecology close and understandable to them.
And tomorrow another group will assimilate the above knowledge.

Sphere Lab as part of Waterman project with SP6 in Braniewo
How to take care of water? Another group of young people from Braniewo already knows it!
The Elblag Technology Park hosted another Sfera Lab educational workshop organized under the WaterMan project. This time our guests were students from Sport Primary School No.6 of Braniewo, accompanied by Tomasz Sielicki Mayor of Braniewo.
During the classes, the youngsters passionately discovered the great importance of saving and reusing water. Participants explored the topic of water footprint, i.e. the hidden consumption of water in the production of food and everyday objects.
The young researchers conducted experiments and participated in practical tasks, learned about innovative technological solutions to conserve water resources, and shared ideas for everyday activities that make a real difference in reducing water consumption.
The commitment and curiosity of the participants show that the young generation wants and is able to act for sustainable development.
This was the second in a series of six meetings - more workshops with students of Braniewo schools are ahead.
