Water & Climate
Design and Solutions inspired by pioneers
Paul van Dijk, has taught phenomenology on
water and plants for many years, and is one of
the carriers of the knowledge put forward by
John Wilkes and the creation of Flowforms.
His motto "Developing the art in man to
understand the art of nature". Get to know

Guilherme Neves Castagna, international
permaculture designer, engineer, and
founder of Fluxus.eco.br, an awarded not-
for-profit engineering and ecological design
firm established in Brazil and now working
in Europe

Active people, specialists and practitioners will discuss and develop together
practical new paths to a world suitable for their grandchildren. Dreams and visions
of a life in full harmony with water and climate will be tested at the projects of the participants based on the work of Guilherme and Paul.
The aim is to encourage a
deeper understanding of water and how the application of ecological design and
technologies can be adjusted in scale to different settings across projects and regions of the participants, but
always following the same principles. Participants from different countries and
continents working together to perceive challenges as opportunities while bringing
their very own perspectives into comprehensive designs that can successfully
counteract the impending climate challenges while simultaneously providing good
quality water through simple, and elegant solutions.
Feel like joining us?
At the end of the workshop local and international students will present their projects to audiences and potential investors in a public hearing session on Sunday, 12 th of November, in the Nordloh - Apen Seminar House, guided by both, Paul and Guilherme.

INFO
Solutions for Water & Climate made tangible
Guilherme and Paul draw their participants under the spell of imagination to develop diverse solutions.
The urgent internation of Guilherme´s father at the emergency hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil, forces us to run the whole workshop only by online. Guilherme needs to be on his father´s side now. Petra accepts the coordination and knowledge transfer from Guilherme´s and Paul´s know how, experiences and recommendations. Paul´s new look at the element of Water, Paul unravels a unique experience that brings a special fascination for life. Special dedication to art, perfection and design of regenerating forms lead to successful mechanisms to restore water to its divine gurgle. Carmen & Ollie, members of the Seminarhaus Team support her with their creativity, mankind and online presence.
All participants can get inspired by this new look at the element of Water and turn it into carefully integrated solutions discovering rainwater as a powerful regenerative medium, and the so-called wastewater as a nutrient and energy rich water flow that can be harnessed instead of further destroying our world.
