On the 14th and 15th September 2024, the Energy & Water Agency (EWA) hosted its annual Open Weekend at the Ghajn – National Water Conservation Awareness Centre in Rabat. This engaging two-day event offered family-friendly activities, featuring children’s games, interactive shows, and educational animations centered around the topic of water sustainability, conservation, and reuse in the Maltese islands.
During the event, an outdoor exhibition showcased and promoted various projects that EWA is currently undertaking, including the Clepsydra project funded by the Interreg Euro-MED Programme. This initiative was highlighted to engage the public and raise awareness about the project objectives.
The Groundwater Open Day in Malta is scheduled for Sunday, the 20th of October 2024. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore an underground water spring Misraħ Suffara in Ħad-Dingli, which forms part of the groundwater monitoring network. Throughout the day guided tours will be held every hour, providing participants with insights into the development of groundwater in perched aquifers systems.
