WATER IS LIFE

The youth prize contest The Water We Want aims at engaging young
people as narrators of our multifaceted water heritage and storytellers
of more sustainable water futures.

How can we change the mindset of people and inspire new behaviours and
attitudes to be more respectful of nature and promote awareness in all
water uses? What daily actions can we make to protect the increasingly
scarce water resources we depend upon? And what can we learn from our
inherited water legacies to look for new solutions and foster the green
recovery of our planet?

This contest calls on young generations worldwide to explore creatively the crucial importance
of any form of water heritage, both natural and cultural, tangible and intangible. The contest is
addressed to schools, learning institutions and civil society organizations worldwide.
