Youth4Water was conceptualised to harness the power of youth to raise awareness and initiate action on water conservation and related fields such as sanitation and hygiene. It is heartening to know that the campaign has been able to mobilise thousands of youth across the state in just one year.
The youth got a firsthand opportunity to understand community conservation efforts in different parts of the state. Interactions with the communities have enlightened them on how united and persistent efforts can bring in solutions to some of the serious challenges that we face. While we are already facing water crisis, climate change further worsens the crisis. Our rivers are drying up and drought periods are extending their grip.
This book is a product of one of the many important activities that the campaign took up. The examples captured in this booklet tell us how community initiatives in harvesting rainwater and conserving forests can help us building resilience to impacts of climate change.
