Monday’s beginning sessions in Zagreb featured introductions with newcomers and updates of the EJWP journey, including capacity building in the iMermaid project, and integration of the WatNex project into activities.
A hybrid workshop, “Collaboration towards Empowerment of the Water Community,” took place in the afternoon with action-based links to EJWP with ongoing EU-funded projects that are also facilitated through H2O-People, the parent organization of EJWP. Aims of the WatNex project were highlighted including the Croatian case for EJWP participation, “Prospects for Ecological Station Vrlika.” WatNex is working to empower a network of stakeholders working on water, energy and food sustainability, in the context of climate change in Nexus systems. The workshop schedule included partners in the iMermaid project with open calls for discussion on new opportunities for cooperation to build empowered water sector networks and activities. Workshop attendees included the of the Dean of the faculty of Biology of the University of Zagreb and representatives of the Norwegian Embassy in Croatia.
Later in the afternoon, a masterclass on Karst Ecosystems prepared participants for their upcoming field trip walk into the city of Zagreb seeking and surveying water sources of the local water system – which were mainly found underground. Prof. Sanja Gottstein of the University of Zagreb led the masterclass and field trip.
