Furthermore the conference and the conference  field trip have inspired that the nationally known talk show host Goderdzi Sharashia from the government-affiliated TV station Imedi provided a special report. As we have been informed by the German Embassy the reportage was 12 minutes, striking images and music, interviews with Engurhesi staff. The report tells the story of the dam, not scientifically, but rather as a kind of look behind the scenes. Unfortunately, the recording is only available online on Facebook > to the report.
