Director's Welcome

With this website, the Water Research Institute is proud to present the community with a global vision of the field of water studies and of the activities of our scientists, governing bodies and offices as they work together on the projects and challenges that form the basis of our daily practice. The design of the website is interdisciplinary, international and cross-sector, and in it you will find information, analyses, studies and research produced by scientists from across the different UB faculties in a body of work that is generated by and addresses the subject of water.

I am María Jesús Montoro Chiner, full Professor of Administrative Law at the Faculty of Law of the University of Barcelona. Welcome to the Water Research Institute website, a point of reference in our field that we hope will meet your expectations.

Dr. María Jesús Montoro Chiner
Director of the Water Research Institute
