KINDRA final conference
27 February 2018 - 27 February 2018
Belgium
As the project reaches its end, the KINDRA consortium proudly announces the project’s final conference. The theme will be “Making groundwater visible, accessible & esteemed”.
The consortium aims to showcase the results achieved by the project, such as the EIGR (European Inventory for Groundwater Research) as well as the methodology used for identifying gap analyses and its results, and, last but not least, start a conversation about the future of the Inventory with stakeholders and decision-makers to identify a roadmap for developing policies, strategies, and management options at European level related to groundwater.
About KINDRA:
Groundwater and hydrogeology-related research activities cover a wide spectrum of research areas at EU and national levels. However, groundwater issues are quite often either ignored or considered only in insufficient detail and separated from the associated surface water bodies, despite of its critical importance as renewable, high-quality, naturally protected (but still vulnerable) resource that has significant impacts on both surface water bodies and ecosystems. The KINDRA project (Grant Agreement No. 642047) created a critical mass for scientific knowledge exchange of hydrogeology research, to ensure wide applicability of research results, including support for innovation and development. The overall objective of the project is to take stock of our current knowledge of hydrogeology through an inventory of research results, activities, projects and programmes at national and international scale.
