This is a project of Colectivo Ecologista Jalisco (CEJ) and Ambientes Justos.

CEJ is a non-governmental and non-profit organization, established in

Mexico in 1986. Since its beginning, its focus has been environmental

education, political advocacy, promoting the right to information, and

fostering the articulation between sectors interested in improving the

society-nature relations. Ambientes Justos is a non-profit organization that

works on environmental pedagogy and action-oriented research in situations

of environmental injustice. Our team has been working on the issues of

water, toxics, pollution and environmental education in the area of

influence of this project for over two decades.

Our approach is focused on:

Environmental pedagogy with children and youth.

Alternatives for water supply through rainwater harvesting.

Action-oriented research in situations of environmental injustice.

¿Do you know Santi? creative Environmental pedagogy. Stage II

The program seeks the empowerment of children and youth to take action to

improve their environment. The children and youth will learn about

the history of the Santiago River and its importance for the community and

ecosystems.

The program will facilitate exchanges between students and teachers from

schools of different communities in the Upper Santiago Basin, that are affected

for the toxic pollution and water scarcity.

The program will provide information and skills for students and teachers to

implement alternatives to harvest rainwater at school.

Promote a new culture of water with a climate change perspective.

Note: as of July 1, 2015 there is a 5% additional support fee for cash contributions. This fee does not appear in the financials above because it does not apply if the funds are sent directly to the project account (without going through TRF, and therefore without Paul Harris credit). Clubs sending their cash contribution to TRF must be aware they will have to send an additional 5%.
