Create a project that addresses and mitigates water scarcity issues. Your project can take any form, including technology solutions, visual storytelling, design, or data analysis.
Submit Your EntryThis new chapter of your quest begins in the small community of Oasis Hollow, a settlement nestled among rocky outcrops in the vast Velora Plains. The inhabitants have created makeshift cisterns to collect the rare rainwater that falls, but it is never enough. As you arrive, the locals gather around to hear from The Hydronauts, a visionary organization formed by residents dedicated to sustainable water management and conservation.
Members of The Hydronauts are filled with determination as they share stories of families forced to walk miles to find even a trickle of water. They explain the local tradition of water conservation but admit that without more sustainable solutions, the community’s survival is at risk. The warm sun beats down as you assist The Hydronauts in organizing a town hall meeting, bringing together families, elders, and children, united in their shared struggle.
Your challenge is to build a project that addresses the pressing issues related to water supply in Oasis Hollow and surrounding communities. Explore innovative solutions that could alleviate water scarcity, such as rainwater harvesting systems, efficient irrigation techniques, or filtration methods. Think creatively about how technology can play a role in this quest for clean water, whether through educational platforms that empower residents with knowledge or engaging digital tools that facilitate community collaboration. As you work alongside The Hydronauts and the community members, your project will not only aim to secure clean water but also foster resilience and sustainability for future generations.
Consider how your work can:
Feel free to let your creativity guide you as you develop a solution that contributes to a world where everyone has access to clean water.
