Outreach activities

MY NEXUS - Know your water-energy-food nexus [Conhece o teu nexus Água-Energia-Alimento]

My-nexus dissemination activity was developed to present CitySelfy research scope and work to high school students and increase project societal impact. The activity aims to inform, in a didactic approach, aspects related with environmental sustainability within the municipal water-energy-food system, as part of the broader efforts conducted within the CitySelfy project. The activity will consist of two main components:

  • The first component involves enlightening students about concepts related to energy services, water consumption and food indirect environment impacts, illustrating their connection to their daily activities through an interactive Q&A session (using mentimeter).
  • The second component entail showing the integrated WEF perspective by connecting the Q&A results and correspondent connections.
