Water

This project was created to educate youth to the importance of water and the environment. In partnership with a local television station in Ramallah (Wattan TV), the Palestinian Hydrology Group (PHG) is producing a television show for children which addresses water and environmental problems.

Through songs, games and news clips, 10 youths share the stage with a host. Thanks to this project, children and their parents are being sensitized to the importance of protection, conservation and respect for water.

CLUB 2/3, the youth division of Oxfam-Québec, is working with the association Esperanza, agua y vida, to develop and improve access to water in seven villages.

This project aims to involve youth in the community in taking charge of their living conditions, and building infrastructure for the transport and distribution of clean drinking water. It is being implemented in tandem with an educational and training programme on environmental issues. Close to 6000 people will be able to maintain access to clean water and thereby improve their living and sanitary conditions.

Oxfam-Québec, in partnership with the ONE DROP Foundation, is conducting a project which unites water and agriculture in order to improve the living conditions of the people in the Valle region. The project aims to provide access to clean drinking water and thereby improve the health, food safety and revenues of small producers and help them better manage their irrigation systems.

The project includes an original and innovative component which uses art and education to raise collective awareness among targeted families and their communities, on topics including the conservation and rational use of water and natural ressources. A mobile caravan visits local towns and stages live performances in the streets, public spaces and schools of the rural and urban communities in Southern Honduras.
