Students of the Faculty of Sustainable Mountain Development of the Georgian Technical University, under the guidance of professors and researchers, participated in the monitoring of the innovative flood regulation elastic barrage. within the framework of events dedicated to the International Day of Disaster Risk Reduction.
The professional field expedition of the students of the bachelor’s program of natural hazards, sustainable environment and protection, under the joint initiative of the head of the Faculty of Sustainable Mountain Development, Professor Noe Khozrevanidze, and the Director of the Tsotne Mirtskhulava Scientific Research Institute of Aquaculture, Academician Givi Gavardashvili, was held in the village of Kvemo Mleti, Dusheti Municipality, in the Aragvi valley of Mtiuleti, in the catchment basin of the Mletishkevi river.
As the head of the faculty Noe Khozrevanidze noted, the students learned the working principles of the innovative engineering structure - water regulation elastic barrage, arranged by the GTU Tsotne Mirtskhulava Institute of Water Management.
