Preparing for Walking for Water 💧👩🏼‍🤝‍👨🏻

Despite the break from the road being longer than first expected, the plan is still for Charlie to return to Nigeria and end his walk with Tanzania as the final destination.

This time, however, he is joined by Julie, who will be on selected parts of the trip. Therefore, they have traveled to Sweden as part of the training and to find out what they will need when they walk together in Africa.

- Flash back Friday -

It is no secret that it’s not always easy when you walk from Denmark and down through Europe and Africa, but sometimes you are extra challenged 🤥

On his way through Sierra Leone, Charlie was suddenly met by this muddy road. That itself most people would probably be tired of having to fight their way through, but of course Charlie also had to get all of his belongings with him. So what should have been reasonably straightforward suddenly turned into a hard and very dirty pleasure.

But Charlie and his carriage came through and he continued in high spirits 🙌🏼

It will be exciting to see what other fun challenges he faces when he will continue his journey 😉

“The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated the critical importance of sanitation, hygiene and adequate access to clean water for preventing and containing diseases. Hand hygiene saves lives. According to the World Health Organization, handwashing is one of the most effective actions you can take to reduce the spread of pathogens and prevent infections, including the COVID-19 virus. Yet billions of people still lack safe water sanitation, and funding is inadequate.”

FINISHED PROJECT💧

Electric water supply in Ikot Udo, Nigeria 💧🇳🇬

Back in October last year, @tirstrupidraetsefterskole held in collaboration with Walking for Water's partner, @lovespringwaterforwater a 24-hour race where money was raised in favor of clean water in Africa 🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️

In collaboration with @umuntumovement - Nigeria, Walking for Water's local partner in Nigeria, we were able to inaugurate a large electric water supply with five staggered tapping stations last month in the Ikot Udo community - all thanks to the school's donations from the race 💦💦

We are so impressed with the efforts that the students at @tirstrupidraetsefterskole have delivered, and we look forward to seeing what amazing results they will bring next time. We are cheering on them 🙌🏼 ❤️

Thank you for the good cooperation to everyone involved 🙏🏼

MEET THE TEAM / PART FOUR

English in comment section below.

“Man er med til at gøre en forskel, der skaber synlig forandring”

Mød en frivillig💧

“Mit navn er Aline, og jeg har været frivillig ved Walking for Water siden oktober 2020. Jeg er en del af medlemsgruppen, som rekrutterer frivillige og medlemmer, og så laver vi forskellige former for fundraising.

Til daglig er jeg i gang med en kandidat i miljø og ressource forvaltning på SDU, og når jeg ikke bruger min tid på studie og Walking for Water kan jeg godt lide at gå i genbrugsbutikker og se forskellige DIYs og renoveringsprojekter på nettet. Herudover er jeg med i et entreprenør program på mit universitet, hvor jeg sammen med to andre, prøver at skabe en virksomhed.

Jeg har fulgt Walking for Water siden 2018, og jeg valgte at blive en del af teamet, fordi jeg synes, at organisationens arbejde støtter bæredygtig udvikling i Afrikas lokalområder. Jeg har også stor interesse for det afrikanske kontinent, og med mit nuværende studie i miljø og ressource forvaltning, håber jeg, at Walking for Water kan lære mig mere om, hvordan forskellige faktorer forværrer eller forbedrer tilgængeligheden til rent drikkevand.

Jeg vil anbefale andre, at blive en del af Walking for Water fordi, man er med til at gøre en forskel, der skaber direkte synlig forandring.”

Vil du også være frivillig? Vi leder altid efter nye frivillige til at drive og udvikle organisationen og til at skabe resultater og give værdigt trængende mennesker adgang til rent vand, så hold dig ikke tilbage - kontakt os på Facebook, Instagram eller via vores hjemmeside, hvor du også kan læse meget mere om, hvad det vil sige at være frivillig ved Walking for Water💧💙

Water for 2,000 people💧

In collaboration with the danish sponsor @barutren, our danish partner @lovespringwaterforwater and our local Nigerian partner IWA - YWP Nigeria, we recently completed a large water project in Orisada Eyo in Nigeria.
A solar powered water project that won't only provides clean drinking water, but also electricity for charging mobile phones and other electric devices, which the inhabitants in the community can benefit from.

Walking for Water are very aware of the sustainability of our projects, to ensure that clean water can be provided for many years to come. Therefore, agreements are made with the beneficiaries to establish water committees to assure that funds will be raised for repair and maintenance when the need arrises in the future.

Instead of putting a price on the provision of water, this system allows the users to raise funds from charging their phones and other electrical devices, to put aside funds to ensure that the water provision can provide serve the community free of charge for many years into the future.

Many thanks to our sponsor, BarutRen who has made a huge difference, and given 2,000 people access to clean drinking water💧💙

“Childhood diarrhoea is closely associated with insufficient water supply, inadequate sanitation, water contaminated with communicable disease agents, and poor hygiene practices. Diarrhoea is estimated to cause 1.5 million child deaths per year, mostly among children under five living in developing countries.”

Do you remember this day?

Six years ago today Charlie began his journey on foot to Tanzania. Much has happened since then; Walking for Water has grown, many African communities has gained access to clean drinking water, and we are proud of the journey 💙 ... but we are far from finished. Many more wells need to be built 💪🏽

In addition to the many water projects, Charlie will also complete his journey, which has been put on hold since August 2019, when he had to leave Nigeria involuntarily.

Until then, we continue to work on our mission back home from Denmark, and we are proud and happy about what we have achieved so far 💧
