Hackathon “Water Challenges 2020” organised by AySA
Are you committed to the world of water and sanitation and do you have knowledge of or experience in technology, entrepreneurship, diversity or care for the environment? Then make sure to join the Hackathon “Water Challenges 2020”, the first initiative of the AySA Link Innovation HUB and supported by prestigious organizations nationally and internationally.
Watershare is a proud partner of this initiative, and will be represented by Maria Lousada Ferreira, an Environmental Engineer from KWR. Maria will represent Watershare as part of the jury of the hackathon.
“Watershare exists to connect knowledge and end-users all over the word. Real connections are made by sharing each other’s challenges. The hackathon is addressing exactly those challenges, therefore it will contribute to forge a stronger relation between the Watershare partners. Consequently, contributing to a stronger water sector.
I’m personally happy to be involved, because I believe the best solutions come from new perspectives to solve old problems. I see the hackathon has many ideas, where creativity and idealism come together. We all need inspiration to solve the challenges in the water sector, and the hackathon will be at the source of it.” – Maria Lousada Ferreira, Scientific Researcher, KWR
