John Horton has been awarded two ESRC grants to develop
interdisciplinary research collaborations between UK-based Social Scientists
and Brazilian Engineering Scientists. The projects will focus on children and
young people’s everyday experiences of water and energy issues in São Paulo State.

To launch this two-year programme of work, John travelled with the
project’s Principal Investigator (Prof Peter Kraftl, University of Birmingham) to
visit São Paulo state during January.
The trip involved a range of
presentations, impact workshops, community visits, and fascinating fieldtrips
to key sites relating to water and energy issues in the region. More
information will follow in future blog posts.
