Ghajn Iċ-Ċentru ta’ Informazzjoni għall-Konservazzjoni tal-Ilma għandu l-għan li jżid l-interess u għarfien

Iċ-Ċentru ta’ Informazzjoni għall-Konservazzjoni tal-Ilma għandu l-għan li jżid l-interess u l-għarfien dwar l-importanza tar-riżorsi tal-ilma fil-gżejjer Maltin, u għalhekk il-bżonn li dawn jiġu mħarsa u użati tajjeb. Għalhekk il-binja prinċipali taċ-Ċentru tinkludi numru ta’ installazzjonijiet edukattivi u interattivi li jikkumplimentaw inizjattivi edukattivi oħra dwar il-konservazzjoni tal-ilma

. Iċ-Ċentru jinkludi wkoll dawn il-faċilitajiet:

- Żona ta’ Xjenza, li tippreżenta l-istrumenti ta’ monitoraġġ li jintużaw biex jiġu mkelja fatturi klimatiċi bħax-xita, ir-riħ u l-evaporazzjoni;

- Żona ta’ Arkeoloġija, li turi l-wirt arkeoloġiku li nstab waqt il-bini taċ-Ċentru;

- Żona ta’ Divertiment, b’logħob għat-tfal integrat ma’ numru ta’ pannelli b’informazzjoni dwar l-importanza tal-konservazzjoni tal-ilma fl-istorja tagħna; u

- Żona ta’ Esibizzjoni: spazju miftuħ għal attivitajiet kulturali mill-komunità tal-madwar. Iċ-Ċentru għalhekk jipprova jintegra ruħu mal-ambjent tal-madwar sabiex jippreżenta u jwassal il-messaġġ dwar il-konservazzjoni tal-ilma b’mod informali filwaqt li jservi wkoll ta’ spazju ta' rikreazzjoni għall-komunità tal-lokalità.

As part of the LocAll4Flood project, students taking part in the Chadwick Lakes educational programme had the opportunity to complete a puzzle designed to introduce key concepts related to freshwater ecosystems and Nature-Based Solutions. 🧩

Working in groups, students assembled the puzzle and discussed how natural features can help reduce flood risks while supporting healthy freshwater environments.

Recently, the Ghajn Centre welcomed Year 5 students from St. Clare College, Madonna tal-Mensija Primary School, San Ġwann, to Chadwick Lakes for a series of educational visits. 💧🌱

During their visit, the students explored the freshwater habitat of Wied il-Qliegħa (Chadwick Lakes Trail), learning about the diverse plants and animals that depend on this unique ecosystem. They also visited the historic Fiddien Box, a structure once used to distribute water, and took part in a fieldwork activity along the Chadwick Lakes Trail. 🐸

By experiencing nature firsthand, the students gained a deeper understanding of freshwater ecosystems, the importance of biodiversity, and Malta’s rich water heritage.

The Energy and Water Agency continues to strengthen local outreach through the LocAll4Flood project by raising awareness and encouraging collaboration on risk management for flash floods and climate adaptation in Malta. Through community activities, educational outreach, and collaboration with European initiatives, the project helps communities become better prepared for the impacts of climate change and extreme weather.

As part of these efforts, the project collaborated with the LANDS Erasmus+ and URWAN Interreg Euro-MED projects during a multi-stakeholder meeting on urban resilience and sustainable development. Representatives from local councils, public authorities, educators, and environmental stakeholders discussed Nature-based Solutions (NbS), community engagement, and participatory approaches for more resilient urban environments.

LocAll4Flood also took part in Earth Day activities through an awareness session at Trelleborg Sealing Solutions Malta, focusing on sustainable water use and flood resilience. Participants learned about water consumption, leak detection, home water audits, rainwater harvesting and other practical water-saving measures to better utilise rainwater.

Educational outreach also continued through school visits and dissemination sessions at Għajn, where flash flood awareness materials and exhibitions were shared with students and visitors to encourage preparedness and climate resilience.

This week, we marked International Museum Day at Ghajn with a visit from students of St Thomas More College Dun Ġużepp Żerafa Fgura Primary A 💧

During the visit, students learned that the Għajn Centre forms part of the Global Network of Water Museums Unesco-IHP . They also coloured specially prepared posters and wrote their own water-saving messages as part of the day’s activities.

This activity follows the World Water Day exhibition held at Għajn earlier this March, during which 6 artworks were selected from around 60 submissions and entered into “The Water We Want” international competition organised by WAMU-NET.

These activities continue to raise awareness about the importance of water sustainability through art and interactive learning.

The Energy and Water Agency hosted the LANDS Malta Local Forum at the Għajn Centre in Rabat, as part of the Erasmus+ KA220-VET project LANDS – Leveraging Actions with Nature for Development and Sustainability. 🌱

The forum brought together stakeholders from policy, education, local councils, environmental authorities, and related sectors to discuss urban resilience, climate adaptation, and sustainable development. 👥

Participants explored the concept of Nature-based Solutions (NbS), together with participatory tools and methodologies that support more resilient and sustainable urban environments. Interactive discussions highlighted the importance of collaboration, community engagement, environmental education, and strengthening local capacity to support the implementation of NbS in Malta.
