employees who educate and encourage

youngsters to consume natural resources

in a responsible and sustainable way. It also

makes them appreciate the work involved

adventure story in a digital environment.

This initiative has also become an essential

tool, creating a sense of in-house cohesion

and pride in being a member of the Com-

pany among all the workers who form part

of the Aqualia team. Congratulations to all

Aqualia family members!
