Documentaries

The ICM, together with "La Ciència al teu Món", have brought to life the documentary "Global Change Tales. Chapter 1: The Ebro Delta", which analyzes the changes that the Ebro Delta has undergone during the last decades.

This docu-reality focuses on how the inhabitants of the delta are managing these changes, who have lived them and explain them here in first person, giving rise to a deep reflection on the current and future situation of this point of the Catalan coast. The film, funded by the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT), presents the Ebro Delta as a dynamic ecosystem of which different groups interact with each other and present conflicts and individual interests that allow understanding.
