The journey of WATERMEDYIN project – new videos released
After 12 months of intense and exciting activities, WaterMedyin project is about to close. We are proud to present in these three videos the project’s achievements and its impacts on the Innovation support organisations and startups (based in Lebanon, Palestine and Tunisia) and hopefully on the whole innovation ecosystem of the area.
WATERMEDYIN Project, financed by the Italian Cooperation and implemented by CIHEAM Bari, aims at contributing to sustainable development in line with SDGs, promoting youth entrepreneurship, youth inclusion and socio-economic opportunities in the water and marine-coastal sectors in the Mediterranean Region. Special attention will be paid to the development of women-led businesses. The water and coastal resources sector has been chosen for its relevance with the main issues of the Region, and for the possible multiple benefits and expected impact, in terms of: managing the demand for water resources, efficiency of water networks and health services, pollution reduction, contribution to groundwater replenishment, improvement of access to water in areas not served, better management of marine-coastal resources. The initiative will set up a network of innovation, created with a coherent and coordinated approach, contributing to the sustainability of socio-economic development, protection of natural resources and enhancement of the immaterial and material cultural heritage of the Mediterranean communities.
