Within this broad area of ​​collaboration, the company and the university are committed to advise each other on issues related to the water sector and establishing a schedule of internships with university students

Hidralia, a company that manages the integral water cycle in 53 municipalities in Andalusia -among them Montilla, where it participates with the town council in Aguas de Montilla- has signed a framework collaboration agreement for the next four years with the University of Córdoba ( UCO) in scientific, technical and cultural matters. The aim is to strengthen ties between both to favor the execution of projects and research, cultural and academic programs between the university departments and the Andalusian company. The agreement has been signed at the Rector's Office by the rector of the University of Córdoba, José Carlos Gómez Villamandos and Matilde Mancha Montero de Espinosa, in representation of Hidralia.

Within this broad area of collaboration, Hidralia and the UCO undertake to advise each other on issues related to the water sector and establish a schedule of internships with university students. In this sense, each project or action will have a specific agreement to enhance effectiveness, coordination, execution and monitoring. All this with the necessary constitution of a Mixed Commission composed of participants from both institutions that will ensure the achievement of the objectives pursued in each case.

One of the most innovative parts of this agreement is the exchange of personnel for a limited time when required by the nature of the work, collaborating closely in the development of research projects and the publication of studies together.

In recent years Hidralia has maintained a close relationship with the University of Córdoba, materializing in specific collaborations with the Department of Energy Efficiency and Sustainability, and the sign last January with the accession of the Cordovan institution to the platform against climate change REDAC . This project has been promoted by Hidralia at the Andalusian level to place all sectors of society in search of solutions and synergies of action for the benefit of the planet.
