17 March 2010, Italy.<\/em> On the occasion of the World Water Day on 22 March, the Institut Klorane and Federparchi-Europarc Italia will invite schools to develop a didactic laboratory for kids on water issues. The main goal of this initiative is to raise awareness of the importance of water for life starting from the youngest. <\/p>\n

An important element of the initiative is the collection of all existing educational material concerning water issues, such as the “The European Water Chart”, an abstract of the publication “Water for Life Decade” published by United Nations and translated into Italian by Federparchi (the publication focuses on the importance of water for biodiversity and development, taking into account the issue of the project “Plant biodiversity and its role in facing climate change”), and finally a “Decalogue on water saving” with simple day-to-day good practice rules.<\/p>\n

Through the Vividaria project, the Institut Klorane and Federparchi-Europarc Italia share knowledge, best practices and increase awareness of environmental sustainability. More than 500 primary school classrooms will take part in the project.<\/p>\n
