M-Nex Kick-off Meeting in Sydney

M-Nex delegates, coming from 6 countries and representing seven partners and one collaborator, gathered in Sydney from May 16 to 18 for the kick-off meeting of the M-Nex Project. We visited Architectural design offices , and  exchanged information on latest design projects in Australia and Asian-Pacific countries. Project members shared their early work starting up M-Nex in each country and discussed the overall working plan going forward. On the final day, participants visited the water treatment in Sydney Central Park, and examined one of the most advanced projects in the world focused on the nexus of water, energy and landscape.
