OCEANS XPLORATIONS

We call initiatives that create movement around societal challenges Xplorations. In these Xplorations you can see the way OceansX works in practice.

XPLORATION – COASTLINE

Xploration Coastline leads to a demonstrator providing 1000m3 water per 24 hours. A fast and flexible solution, suitable for deployment at coastal locations with acute or persistent water shortages due to natural disasters, drought or salinization. Coastline is powered by 100% green energy, innovative water purification and zero-emission technology. Join our living lab!

XPLORATION – OCEANS5

Xploration Oceans5 connects people through water. Supporting users to utilize the power of water in the process. Water is us, a mirror of society, and therefore water governance brings together many influences and factors.

XPLORATION – INNER WORKOUT

Through genuine storytelling we all find the energy to start a journey, cross boundaries, open up for support, create collaboration, and find an adequate way to recover and reflect. This Xploration provides a structure in which every Xplorer can receive support in every phase of their unique journey.
