SANITAS (Sustainable and Integrated Urban Water System Management), a European project headed by the LEQUIA (Laboratori d’Enginyeria Química i Ambiental) research group of the University of Girona (UdG), will provide a training and mobility network for young pre-doctoral and post-doctoral researchers through personalised research projects, the exchange of knowledge with other researchers and members, attendance at workshops and seminars, and training in areas complementary to the research (including project management, group leadership, intellectual property and environmental policies). It will also provide contact and promote synergy between researchers and businesses in the water sector.
