We're introducing our 2023-2024 Youth Advisory Boa

We're introducing our 2023-2024 Youth Advisory Board! Meet Tooba Dawood, the environmentalist and education advocate who’s making a global impact! Born northwest of the Jhelum River in Pakistan, Tooba’s love for nature, biodiversity and lived experiences inspired her to create accessible education on a global scale. Her climate project, which won Youth Challenge International’s 2022 Pitch Night, has catapulted her into the forefront of education-focused projects that tackle the SDGs, climate action and quality education.
With a Certified Associate in Project Management license and 10+ years of experience in youth leadership, Tooba continues to collaborate with organizations and individuals worldwide, helping to break barriers to education. As Director of Strategic Planning for the Baronet Foundation, Global Youth Ambassador with Theirworld Org, SDG Mentor with the United Nations Association of Canada, and an Ocean Bridge Ambassador with Ocean Wise, Tooba is making a real difference for youth in Canada and beyond.
Tooba is also passionate about mentoring youth and empowering them with the leadership and project management skills necessary for success, as evidenced by her work with various youth-focused organizations. Join Tooba on her mission to empower youth through education and create a brighter future for generations to come!

We're excited to announce that we have a new Youth

We're excited to announce that we have a new Youth Advisory Board in place for the 2023-2024 term! Our board members are volunteers, 18-30 years old, active and interested in water and climate change, education, community engagement, and committed to work on reconciliation and support UNITY.
Meet Aislyn Sax! Aislyn has been passionate about conservation for years which pushed her to attend law school and focus on environmental law. She currently resides on the territory of the Three Fires Confederacy of the Odawa, Ojibway, and Potawatomi (Windsor) for school. She has been especially interested in oceans and the sea life inside and how warming and microplastic is affecting the oceans and human health. Aislyn enjoys working with kids and has been involved with program and workshop development since she started going to summer camps at 11. She wants to continue learning and advocating for indigenous legal orders within her future practice. Outside of work you can find her quoting her favourite sitcom characters. Welcome, Aislyn!

Meet Mexico's Loreta Castro Reguera, whose work fo

Meet Mexico's Loreta Castro Reguera, whose work focuses on the design of infrastructural public spaces to better manage water through urban design.
"(The public space) has the possibility of acting, let's say, vertically, not only as an urban surface, but also in mitigating environmental problems (...) If we look at the urban sprawl of the most important cities in the world, it is impressive how these cities are expanding irregularly and without a structure, with no places to connect , to meet, to talk, to hang out, to catch the rain, or to recycle garbage, for example. That represents plenty of work for all the architects in the world, no? I think that (the public space) is a place where we must set our eyes as architects, as urban designers, if we really want to transform the cities in which we live."

Exciting WIL Tanzania progress update‼️ As par

Exciting WIL Tanzania progress update‼️
As part of the #incubation phase, our teams, together with community members, had the pleasure of hosting an expert who visited to assess and define optimal sites for building small and affordable #sand dams.
Our community champions learned essential principles for site selection 📝and received training on the construction process 🔨🪓⛏️.
We're thrilled to announce that not one, but TWO sand dams will be built—one dedicated to irrigation🌾 and the other for livestock use🐄.
Stay tuned as we continue our journey with our #wilTanzania participants towards sustainable rainwater harvesting and empowering the community💦🌱
