Dŵr Uisce Smart Specialisation Cluster

Roberta Bellini

Over the last 6.5 years, our team has worked with many organisations from a broad range of sectors. At the core of WP8 was the set up of a so-called Smart Specialisation Cluster to facilitate contribution to the project activities and uptake of the project findings by the water industry, to raise public awareness of the work being carried out in relation to the water-energy challenge.You can explore the activities, outreach and impacts achieved in this poster.

In our page ‘Our cluster’, a short new session on how the cluster is visualised in DUVis is presented (Figure 1). Here the poster prepared for our final event can be accesses to read more about the features and capabilities of the tool, as well as its benefits. The tool is open access and can be explored by scanning the QR code below or by clicking here.

Cluster members have, in the past, had access to our Members Only Area, where documentations and videos about past events were collated and available for viewing and downloading. With the end of the project approaching, all content will be released weekly and become of public domain. These includes recording of our Sustainability Webinar Series, for example. The webinar ‘Managing a transdisciplinary research project’ has already been released and is an opportunity to delve deeper into the research management approach and how new knowledge was created by hearing the reflections of Dŵr Uisce project researchers experience of managing this transdisciplinary research project and developing a useful and usable tool for visualising the project metadata. Watch it here.

We take this opportunity to thank all cluster members and partners who have worked with us and we hope that there will be new future opportunities for collaboration and co-creation. In the meanwhile, keep following us on our social media channels and why not to also check out one of our legacy projects, REHEATZ.
