The ‘Educational Water Pact’ is a portfolio of projects that organizations have shown commitment to. These projects all share the same holistic view and approach to environmental issues as in the guidelines of Pope Francis’ Encyclical Letter “Laudato si”, which outline how to care for Earth, our common home.
“Nature cannot be regarded as something separate from ourselves or as a mere setting in which we live. We are part of nature, included in it and thus in constant interaction with it. Recognizing the reasons why a given area is polluted requires a study of the workings of society, its economy, its behavior patterns, and the ways it grasps reality. Given the scale of change, it is no longer possible to find a specific, discrete answer for each part of the problem. It is essential to seek comprehensive solutions which consider the interactions within natural systems themselves and with social systems.”
We seek to summon the civil society indigenous populations, particularly leaders and decision-makers. We strive to reach young people and children, together with their teachers and families. We aim to transform reality through technology and education. Education that, as Pope Francis teaches, seeks to harmonize the head (reason), the hands (action) and the heart (convictions, passion). This is the social impact that we want to achieve in our projects, and that is measurable, verifiable, consistent, and lasting.
Our approach to the manifestation of this environmental crisis is integral and holistic. We know that without a significant shift in our habits, lifestyles, and ecological management education, any technical solution will be vague and short term. Therefore, we want to work to solve urgent crises that require our cutting-edge technological expertise and to leave capacity in universities and training centers such as schools and technical colleges.

We believe knowledge is power and connection is action. We invite you to take part and join us in our quest to provide drinking water. For any inquiries and further information about our activity click here
