Cross-cutting Projects
Cross-cutting Projects
Cross-cutting projects are inter- and transdisciplinary research projects led by Eawag. They involve cooperation both among scientists (e.g. biologists, engineers and social scientists) and with experts and decision-makers from industry, administration and professional associations. Cross-cutting projects run for a limited period and combine basic research with concrete problem-solving.
