Brazil-Denmark Water Network

The Brazil-Denmark Water Network was a dynamic initiative aimed at fostering strategic collaboration between Denmark and Brazil in the crucial domain of water management. The primary goals were to foster strategic water collaboration, ensure that research and innovation efforts were channeled towards practical applications within Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 3–7, and identify funding opportunities to support robust international collaborations.

Leveraging Partnerships

The network leveraged strategic partnerships with Clean and Greennova Hub, both members of the International Cleantech Network, and served as a facilitator for the execution of Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) and the development of impactful collaborations between Danish and Brazilian entities. These partnerships provided a solid foundation for cooperative efforts to address pressing water challenges and advance sustainable solutions in both countries.

Strategic Collaboration

Through strategic collaboration, the Brazil-Denmark Water Network aimed to address pressing water challenges while advancing sustainable solutions that benefited both nations. By fostering reciprocal delegations, international events, and innovative activities such as hackathons, project development workshops, and science seminars, the network promoted collaboration and knowledge exchange.

Sustainability and Funding

The network was committed to ensuring the sustainability of its efforts by fostering ongoing cooperation, establishing clear communication channels, and formalizing MoUs. Additionally, by identifying funding opportunities from programmes such as Horizon Europe, Innowide, and Danida, the network sought to secure the necessary resources to support its collaborative efforts and contribute to global water security.
