A drop of the good stuff

The exhibition was produced for the Macaulay Institute's events programme in 2005. It was designed to be "resuable" at different events throughout the year, beginning with the Edinburgh International Science Festival in March 2005.

The overall aim was to interpret "catchment management" for a non-specialist audience, but to retain sufficient depth to interest those with an existing knowledge of water and its management. The exhibition was the product of a large team, including scientists, science communicators, designers, IT speicalists and technical support staff.

As the Communication and Outreach Officer, Chris was responsible for the overall project management and budget control as well as devising exhibits and producing copy for many of the materials.

Hands on experiments to demonstrate the effects of human activity on water quality.	An computer "game" to give people a chance to be a catchment manager - aimed at age 10+ but easy enough for a 4-year old to play! Available soon at the Macaulay Institute website.	A "reflections" board to encourage discussion and opinion about water quality ideas.
