Faire du savoir une source intarissable
Titel:
Swarovski Waterschool, le projet éducatif créé en 2000, a toujours mis l'accent sur l'hygiène et l'assainissement. En 2020, bien se laver les mains est devenu plus important que jamais pour que chacun joue son rôle dans la lutte contre la Covid-19.
La pandémie, qui sévit encore, a soulevé de nombreuses problématiques, avec des conséquences majeures pour de nombreux projets Waterschool. Les restrictions sur les rassemblements ont limité la mise en place de plusieurs programmes Waterschool, tandis que la fermeture des écoles a entraîné l'arrêt des activités dans sept pays.
Malgré ces difficultés, les partenaires de Swarovski Waterschool ont réussi à trouver de nouveaux moyens innovants pour continuer à alerter le public sur l'importance et l'urgence de la préservation des ressources en eau de notre planète.
Découvrons comment, pendant la pandémie, les partenaires de Swarovski Waterschool ont su faire preuve d'une incroyable capacité d'adaptation et comment ils sont parvenus à continuer à sensibiliser les enfants sur la ressource la plus précieuse du monde.

Water stories from across the world
Titel:
In India, one of the countries most affected by Covid-19, Waterschool master trainers utilized WhatsApp to provide training on the coronavirus and the water footprint. School closures also provided an opportunity to continue the effort to improve water facilities and sanitation in schools while the children were away.
In Austria, the time was used to conceptualize new ideas for the Waterschool class books and update them. Furthermore, teacher workshops concentrating on hygiene, water footprint and microplastics were conducted in the fall. The workshops proved to be incredibly popular and were fully booked within a couple of days – a new record, which reflects the significance of the Waterschool message.
Workshops were also offered in Thailand and covered hygiene, sanitation, and how to make your own soap.
Lastly, in Brazil – where the impact of Covid-19 has been particularly acute – support was provided for families living in remote villages. Food packages were provided for these communities, meaning that they didn’t have to risk infection by regularly traveling into the nearest city for supplies.
