The exhibition The sphere of water introduces visitors to the world of water, covering from its chemical properties to its role in history and civilisation. Produced by the Higher Council of Scientific Research and Aqualogy within the framework of the International Year of Water Cooperation 2013, the exhibition will be held at one of the rooms of Palau de Cerveró, of the University of Valencia. Consisting of 20 panels, the exhibition is divided into two large blocks. The first one –Water and Nature– follows the course of the water cycle, including its relationship with the climate and the ecosystems. In the second one –Water and Society – the exhibition delves into the influence of human beings on the natural cycle of water, its pollution and the solutions for accessing drinking water, including the links of water with history, health and technology.

All the contents have been prepared by researchers who seek answers and solutions in the sphere of water: Antoni Ginebreda (scientific curator), Joan Grimalt, Francesc Gallart, Jesús Carrera, Damiŕ Barceló and Rafael Rodríguez Clemente, all of them from the Institute for Environmental Diagnoses and Water Studies, of the Council; and Luis Calvo, from the Institució Milŕ i Fontanals. He is the Higher Council’s institutional coordinator in Catalonia.
