Inspiring future leaders in water resources

Vandana Thakur, Software Tester, visits Canberra primary school to share STEM experience with future leaders

It is not often we get the opportunity to talk to young people about the work we do and the role we play in the water sector but when it does happen it reinforces why we work at eWater Group.

Vandana Thakur, our Software Tester, recently visited Garran Primary School, Canberra, and met with students as part of a STEM activity where a cohort of people shared their roles and why they do it. Vandana was joined by representatives from our Australian Deference Forces, a physicist, pathologist, and a solar energy specialist.

For Vandana it was the opportunity to share why she works at eWater Group and how her role is helping to provide creative, science-based and trusted water management expertise and tools within Australia and internationally.

As part of her visit, students took part in a drawing competition to understand the importance of protecting our water resources, the role of eWater Source™, Australia’s National Hydrological Modelling Platform, and how everyone has a part to play.

Congratulations to all the students and thank you to Garran Primary School for inviting us to share our story.
