The redesign of an irrigation system for Ethiopia adapted for the end users and developed in the framework of a cooperation project carried out by Laura Martínez Mifsut, student from the Degree in Engineering in Industrial Design and Product Development at the Universitat Jaume I, has obtained the Solidarity Engineering Award awarded by the Spanish Federation of Engineering Without Borders (ISF). With this award, the organization recognizes the best end-of-degree and master's degree works in engineering, in order to reclaim the role and commitment of technology in the transition to sustainable human development around the world.
