持續傳承知識
Title:
Swarovski Waterschool 創立於 2000 年，是個教育專案。良好的保健與衛生一直是 Swarovski Waterschool 所強調的重點。但在 2020 年，多洗手更具重要性，在應對新冠肺炎 (Covid-19) 時扮演了主要角色。
目前發生的疫情帶來了許多挑戰，對許多 Waterschool 專案造成重大影響。不能群聚的限制導致我們無法前進並執行某些 Waterschool 計劃，而學校的關閉代表我們在七個國家所舉辦的活動必須中止。
即使如此，Swarovski Waterschool 的合作夥伴仍設法找到創新方式以持續傳播保存世界水資源的訊息，這是重要且刻不容緩的議題。
讓我們看看 Swarovski Waterschool 的合作夥伴做了什麼令人讚賞的調整，以及他們如何在疫情期間，仍設法持續教育孩童關於世界上最珍貴資源的知識。

Water stories from across the world
Title:
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.
