The Children's World Water Forum

Boiling water makes it safe to drink.

The second Children’s World Water Forum took place in Mexico City from the 16th – 22nd March, 2006. More than one hundred children aged 11-15 worked together to identify the best examples of local action by children on water issues. These examples were then formally presented by child delegates to adult policymakers in Intergenerational Dialogue sessions at the 4th World Water Forum.

Have you been working on a water project in your community? Would you like to share your work with other young people around the world? UNICEF is looking for great examples of local action on water issues. The best projects will be featured in a UNICEF publication on youth leadership, so tell us what you are doing:

What issues in the water and sanitation sector are you involved in? What got you interested in those issues? Can you give some specific examples of the kinds of social action projects you carried out related to those issues? As a young person involved in social change in the water and sanitation sector, what have been the greatest successes? Obstacles? Is there anything else you would like to say about yourself?
