The presentation of the MonRiver project for the second consecutive year kicked off the River Engineering section of the Public Works Engineering Degree (GEOP) Hydraulic Works course taught at the School of Civil Engineering (ETSECCP) of the University of La Coruña (UDC). The aim of the talk aimed at the students was to offer a closer view of the project, which addresses the recovery of rivers from a broader perspective.
The introduction was given by Amal Nnechachi, coordinator of the project, who spoke of a new paradigm in the recovery of rivers located in urbanised environments and the imperative need to work in the direction of current social demands, cultural restoration, ecosystem services, green infrastructures, etc.
At the end of the two-hour session, the students were very interested and very participative.
