local partners in the projects country. Viva con Agua’s firm belief is that even the most serious topics in the world can be battled with joy. Most of the donations are collected through the work at Festival and Dancing Events. The NGO partners up with festival organizer and has mobilized around 15,000 mostly young volunteers. The young volunteers receive free tickets to festival areas, where they collect cups. Usually these cups have a deposit fee of one Euro or more. This way all the festival visitors can easily donate, while partying together. This is way Viva con Agua calls itself an All Profit Organisation. All Profit Viva con Agua wants everybody to benefit from their support, even the volunteers. The focus is on the All Profit idea. Eye level engagement is the key. Viva con Agua does not see their support as a donation, but rather as an investment in water projects and, ultimately, in a better future for all. They want to contribute to a mindset change in society when it comes to a partnership between the northern and southern hemispheres. Viva con Agua prefers to attract volunteers through art, sport, music. They call those Universal Languages. Projects In 2019 Viva con Agua supported 16 WASH-Projects in ten countries: Ethiopia, Kenya, India; Mozambique, Nepal, Uganda, Sudan, Tanzania, Zimbabwe and Sierra Leone. Some projects for example focus strongly on local schools. Due to long ways to school, it is of uttermost importance that the schools are equipped with clean drinking water and sanitation facilities. Further, hygiene sensitization is particularly effective with children as they tend to adopt new behaviour quickly. Another huge project is John’s Rig. A drilling machine, which is supposed to drill 196 shallow wells by 2023.
