In 2003, Someș Water Company, as part of its social responsibility policy, initiated a pilot educational programme for children, which has now become a permanent activity on the protection of water sources and the environment.
What is the Children's Education Programme?
It is an initiative of Someș Water Company to contribute to the environmental education of future generations by highlighting the importance of water and the environmental problems that can affect its quality. We set out to achieve this objective from the perspective of an institution directly involved in the conservation and protection of water sources.
Why have we turned our attention to children?
Each child is like a book that, as it fills its pages, shapes its personality. At the same time, children also have the “power” to educate by spreading the information they receive and by the power of example.
The main objective of this project is to stimulate children’s interest and love for nature and to encourage them to take a pro-active attitude towards its protection in general and the protection of drinking water resources in particular.
- The specific objectives of the project are:
- children's knowledge of pollution sources;
- children's knowledge of the importance of water in their lives;
- children's knowledge of the role of Someș Water Company in obtaining the drinking water we consume;
- stimulating interest in nature and ecology;
- stimulating oral communication and correct expression;
- stimulating imagination and creativity;
- working as a team seeks to foster collaboration and socialisation among children;
- training the civic and environmental behaviour of the company's future customers.
- knowledge of the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda and in particular SDG 6
Someș Water Company is committed to making an essential contribution to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals set out in the United Nations 2030 Agenda in the area it serves.
