The FERRO project has reached a milestone with the completion of its Faces оf FERRO social media campaign. Over the past months, the project’s LinkedIn and Bluesky profiles have featured the scientists whose dedication and expertise drive FERRO’s mission forward. By highlighting the individuals behind the research, the campaign offered followers a closer and more personal look at the work being carried out across Europe to advance lake restoration and innovate new solutions for freshwater ecosystems.

Each profile introduced team members from different partner institutions, showcasing their roles, research interests and contributions to the project. The campaign not only celebrated their achievements but also helped make the scientific effort more accessible and relatable to the broader public.

Building on its success, the Faces оf FERRO campaign has now been transformed into a permanent update on the project’s website. A new “Insider” section has been created, bringing together the featured scientists and linking them directly to the organisations they represent. This dedicated space offers visitors an engaging way to explore the human side of FERRO, reinforcing the collaborative nature of the project and the diversity of expertise involved. The new section can be explored on the partners page of the FERRO website, where all featured contributors are now brought together in one place. 

By extending the campaign beyond social media, FERRO continues to highlight the importance of the people behind the science and the collective effort shaping the project’s progress.

The completion of Faces Of FERRO marks not an end but a beginning, as the project continues to share insights, updates and stories from across the consortium.
