Youth4Water, formerly called 'Canada, Youth and the Right to Water', is a public engagement initiative that brings together youth from diverse socio-economic backgrounds around the issue of the Right to Water as a basic human right and necessity. Through experiential learning techniques and diverse participatory research modules, youth from all backgrounds will make local connections to the global realities of the water and sanitation crisis. Youth4Water empowers all Canadian youth to be a stakeholder on the political, social and economical issues surrounding water.
