In October, we organized an educational activity with students in Brazil and in the Netherlands as part of the Living Lab Biobased Brazil. Eva Costa de Barros, PhD. (Deltares) gave an inspiring talk on governance and sanitation challenges in both countries and invited students to explore ideas that could support a more sustainable transition. In a “pressure cooker” competition, the winning team proposed a fungi-based permeable pavement concept, designed to prevent flooding risks and produced using wastewater. Congratulations to all the students! 👏 🏆.
Special thanks to our jury (Eva Costa de Barros, PhD., prof. Edgard Dias, and Jappe de Best) and tutors (professors André Rosa, Julia Mendes, Leandro Gurgel, and Mário César Guerreiro) for their guidance and support.
