Desafios Educativos

On 22 March, at the Visitors Center at the Reserva Ecológica, the Ecological Reserve on the River Plate in Buenos Aires, Argentina, several activities will take place to celebrate World Water Day, from 10 am to 4 pm
Local artists have been invited to work together to build a gigantic installation with empty plastic water bottles on the theme of "the states of water".
Pupils from primary and secondary schools from the different districts in Buenos Aires will be invited to attend two talks -- one at 11 am and the other at 3 pm -- on the importance of looking after fresh water and our ecosystems as well as the relationship between the quality of our water and the quality of our lives. The pupils have been studying these issues and will be bringing personal messages they have written on the subject of water care. The messages will be placed in empty plastic water bottles and used to create a massive curtain of "raindrops".
At the same time, we are organizing an art competition about the importance of water on our planet for pre-school, primary and secondary schools from all over Buenos Aires.
