Water Explorers Education Guide 

The Water Explorers Education Guide is a free project-based learning resource developed through collaboration between Sow my Dream, the educational programme of Dona Bertarelli Philanthropy and the Foundation for Environmental Education. 

Designed for upper primary and middle years learners, the guide encourages students to explore aquatic environments through observation, investigation, creativity, and action. 

Through hands-on missions, real-world case studies, and community-focused sustainability activities, students learn how water connects ecosystems, people, and the planet
