S5-S6: SCOTLANDS WORLD WATER DAY EVENT 2022 - OPPORTUNITY

Looking for enthusiastic pupils to participate in Scotland’s World Water Day 2022 event on 22 March 2022.   Scotland's world water day will focus on realising the benefits of Scotland's water. The aim of the event will be to help understand how we can communicate the benefits and challenges of water management in Scotland. They are keen to host a youth roundtable during the event to give a voice to the next generation and understand their views on the water environment and its management.  The event would involve a facilitated Q&A including several young people with a live audience. Everyone will be supported by the World Water Day Team, and it will provide a great opportunity for a young person interested in the water environment to express their views to Scotland's water community and policy makers. This is an exciting opportunity to learn and engage with developments in Scotland’s water policy, science, and practice; and excellent for putting on any CV/Job/Uni applications!  Prof Lorna Dawson who recently spoke with Higher Geographers has brought this to Mr Clark and is involved.  She has said that "We are happy to speak about making arrangements for getting any participants to the venue and if required a teacher can of course come in support ."
