Get ready to explore how the health of people, animals, and the environment are all interconnected through water in this Hackathon. You’ll learn about the importance of this vital resource while seizing the opportunity to work with international teams on solving a real-world regional challenge. Collaborate with students from diverse countries and fields of study to develop the most innovative solution. Showcase your skills as you actively contribute to creating a more sustainable future for everyone!

The “One Water” concept highlights that all forms of water — whether drinking water, wastewater, or stormwater — are interconnected and must be managed as a single, shared resource. By approaching water with a broad perspective, we can ensure clean and accessible water for everyone, protect ecosystems, and promote a healthier planet for all living beings. During this Hackathon, you and your team will work on questions such as "How can we use wastewater data for public health management?" and "How can we use this information effectively to improve public health, creating value with this information?". If this sounds interesting to you, join us for the event in Portugal!
