Freshwater month
A month of activities to explore the richness and fragility of freshwater, from our rivers to the tropics, through activities, tours, and scientific encounters.
As a public university open to the world and is anchored in the scientific, cultural and economic development of its region, the University of Liège relies on its three pillars: teaching, research and community service.
ULiège trains responsible citizens who are provided with cutting-edge knowledge and critical thinking, are able to share knowledge and can push forward an increasingly complex world.
ULiège develops and promotes excellence in research, multidisciplinary and direct engagement with its instruction.
Global exposure is a top priority at the University of Liège. The institution offers a wide range of international mobility opportunities to students, researchers and staff, enabling them to enhance their cross-disciplinary skills and language knowledge.
ULiège: an experience of daily living. Located in 3 cities and 4 campuses, the university is a key player in terms of the environment and mobility.
The Aquarium is transformed into a place of stories and imagination. To mark Freshwater Month, storyteller Catherine invites you on a journey through the lakes, ponds, and pools of the world.
Legends from here and elsewhere, stories inspired by freshwater around the world, and the grand return of kamishibai with Le tour du monde des mares (Around the World in Pools): young and old alike are invited to listen, imagine, and travel through the stories.
These storytelling sessions, accessible to all ages, combine poetry, world cultures, and the discovery of freshwater environments in a gentle and friendly atmosphere in the heart of the Aquarium.
An enchanting interlude for children.
