What is the
Zero Water Day Partnership?

Students engage in conversations that bridge all school topics and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals through their perspective. The global discussion with schools from around the planet aims to create a future of education that meets the needs of all in light of the Cape Town Zero Water Day Crisis. Students understand that as global citizens they are all part of the solution and no community is immune.

The Zero Water Day Partnership couples teachers and students from around the world in a voluntary setting to discuss sustainable development, use, and stewardship of water. The 2021-2022 initiative mountains as towers of the world emphasizes the importance of the Gunnison Watershed and other communities in headwaters around the world.

Students participate in activities developed through UNESCO Future of Education Zero Water Day Partnership and turn their learning into action through school wide and community action. International collaboration and community outreach gives students a perspective not otherwise afforded in a traditional education approach.
