History
When I read the documents of the World Water Summit and studied the collection of rain for plants in my backyard, I discovered that water is so ecologically important to human beings. How polluted was that water? How does it benefit us? I had so many questions.But lots of people don't realize its importance. So I hope to build a website for children & youth called” The Conference of Water” to allow young people to learn, share their ideas and advices on water-related issues.
I once heard a story from India. Some women in India spend 3-4 hours per day just walking to and from their homes for water. If we can offer them a chance to learn some skills through ICT, maybe it will improve their lives!
