Hijjawi Faculty Hosts Pioneers in Digital Twin Technology for Sustainable WEFE Nexus Management

As part of Hijjawi Faculty’s ongoing commitment to advancing sustainability through digital innovation, we recently welcomed Victoria Cotella and Dr. Izni Zahidi (DEng, MIEM, PEng) for a dynamic series of discussions and presentations focused on the transformative potential of Digital Twin technology.

These sessions were held under the umbrella of the project titled "Leveraging Digital Twins for Community-Driven Sustainable WEFE Nexus Management," funded by the Royal Academy of Engineering. The initiative is a collaborative effort between Jordan and Malaysia, aiming to develop data-driven solutions that enhance climate resilience, optimize resource efficiency, and empower community-led decision-making.

The visit featured insightful exchanges on pioneering research, hands-on demonstrations of laboratory capabilities from the Hijjawi Faculty for Engineering Technology, and strategic dialogue around interdisciplinary collaboration pathways.

Looking ahead, the project will continue to serve as a driving force in promoting sustainable urban development by advancing cutting-edge digital twin models and fostering inclusive stakeholder engagement across sectors.
