Description
Description
OBJECTIVES 1. To undertake activities for Environment Protection & Conservation. 2. To create awareness among People for Environment related problems specially Water resources. 3. To undertake activities of Water Conservation in both Rural and Urban Area. 4. To provide access to Clean Drinking Water and promote sanitation and hygiene with the participation of communities. 5. To undertake activities of Rain water harvesting and preservation. 6. To fight diarrhea and other water-borne diseases. 7. Accessible water to all, Help preserve water, and access to safe water. 8. To promote sustainable water resources management. 9. Development for the Farmers and others to teach them new technology to cultivate the crops and skill development program for unskilled, school drop-out men and women. 10. Humanitarian related work such as distributing foods/clothes to the poor, relief distribution during any natural disaster or any other Implementation: Save Water Campaign: Firstly, to resolve this issue we must bring awareness to the people about the present water scarcity and if we don’t save water now what will happen in near future. It can be done through the World Water Day saving water campaign in various educational institutions, Govt. offices, Bus Stations, Railway Stations, Apartments, different communities, road shows, rallies etc. Secondly, give them various ways to save water like rain water harvesting, water conservation and reuse the used water so that water will go back to the earth again. Thirdly, we can revive the water bodies. To do all this we need to train a group of volunteers who can train others to save water. Safe Water: In India, the constitutional right to access to clean drinking water can be drawn from the right to food, the right to clean environment and the right to health, all of which have been protected under the broad heading of the right to life, guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution. We want to install borewells where there is no access to drink water and provide water filters to get safe and clean water. Accordingly we will reach out to the neighboring countries as well
Expected Impact
Save Water Project: We will create a national movement to save water and mostly in urban India where people do have access to water but no sense of saving water. We wish to see the next generations especially the children and youth to take up this campaign forward so that we can save water to save the generation. Safe Water Project: We wish to create a generation who solder with others to help getting safe drinking water mostly in rural India. We wish to see everyone have access to safe drinking water so that waterborne diseases will be uprooted from our nation and unprivileged will have access to clean drinking water.
Partners

Partners are the civil societies, indigenous groups, mission associations, trusts and societies and educational institutions
