Ourense and its province stand out for their high thermal potential, constituting a true benchmark at an Iberian and international level.

Water is a universal resource of first need, of global importance, whose knowledge, management and use can and should be approached from a necessarily multidisciplinary global perspective.

One of its most outstanding and highly topical aspects is that related to mineral-medicinal and thermal waters. Its study and use clearly affect the quality of life of today’s society, contributing very significantly to the achievement of the desired state of well-being.
