World Water Connection - International Water Symposium
Overview
Intro
Andermatt - On November 22, 2025, the moated castle of Europe will be the venue for the international water symposium with the theme "The secrets of water".
The aim of the Gotthard-Connects association is to build bridges between science and life in order to communicate the latest scientific findings to the general public.
There are many amazing discoveries about water that are not yet part of general knowledge.
It is time to change this.
Discover the secrets of water by observing how a water bridge hangs freely in the air, or learn that there is a fourth phase of water called "structured water".
The most interesting finding, however, is that there is evidence that water contains information and can even communicate through the phase of ice.
We are delighted to welcome Cornelia Boesch from SRF as our moderator.
The first part of the day, the official opening of our international symposium, will be introduced by the former Swiss Federal Councillor, Ueli Maurer.
His passion for the Gotthard region and our water is inspiring and sets the tone for the day.
We are honored to welcome Prof. Gerald Pollack, the world-renowned cell biologist from the University of Washington (USA).
He will take us on a journey through the fourth phase of water, which holds many answers to questions that could not be answered until now.
From the Netherlands, we welcome Dr. Dipl. Ing. Elmar Fuchs, who will show us how the hanging water bridge works and what it means for our understanding of water.
From New Zealand, Veda Austin will share her amazing insights into crystal photography with us online. With over 20,000 images, she proves that water is more than we think.
Water is anything but ordinary. Its peculiarities are the main reason why life is possible on earth.
Physicist Prof. Dr. Rolf Kipfer, Professor of Water Resources and Drinking Water at the Eawag Water Research Institute and ETH Zurich, provides insights into the uniqueness of water as the elixir of life.
With exhibitors from Switzerland, Austria and Germany, the event promises to be a complete success.
