Abstract :
Despite water is a fundamental resource for the future of the planet, the debate on its management and its protection is very often limited to experts without the involvement of large parts of the society. The online course on “History and geography of water” promotes the idea of enlarging the borders of the knowledge related to the value of water, taking advantage of the digital education potentiality and ideally extending the theme of water to all the potential stakeholders.
