In the face of water crises, what do we do ?
Discover and be inspired by innovative initiatives
We are 26 years old and part of a generation will face climate change and its consequences in the future. We are convinced that water is the challenge of our century.
Inspired by the film “Demain”, we want to highlight the problems but also, and above all, the solutions. This is how we will look at those who, on their own scale, are taking action to preserve and better manage water resources.
To the Americas ! Crisis and solutions laboratory
The South and North American countries are facing multiple water crises: droughts, pollution of groundwater and rivers, monopolization of resources, difficulty in accessing drinking water, etc…
Geographical and cultural diversity, the plurality of development models and strong economic disparities make it possible to approach crises and solutions in a multitude of ways.
Each initiative will be the subject of a short and impactful pedagogical video
These videos will be produced as the trip progresses and will be available for free on social networks (Facebook, YouTube, Instagram)
To go further, a long-format documentary
Produced at the end of the project, this documentary will propose a more global reflection on the means and tools at our disposal to preserve and better manage water resources. It will also allow us to meet citizens through various public and free screenings
