The local demonstrator for Gozo pilot area will consist in the construction of an underground water reservoir in the village of Kercem. The water reservoir will gather rainwater runoff, whereby this water will be used for landscaping an adjacent public garden, the latter being funded through local funds. This garden will be a very convenient resting point for tourists. This demonstrator will form part of a wider framework of projects which in the future will provide a better natural experience to the tourists visiting the area, thereby contributing to the diversification of Gozo’s tourism product.
