"My world water library."
” We are all contributing to shaping what the library will look like one day,” say the initiators Ernst Bromeis and Daniel Maselli. They are calling on organisations and individuals from around the world to bring or send special books, pictures or films to Reichenau. You too can become part of the World Water Library.
Experience together
Come to the World Water Library with your school class or students and immerse yourself in the world of water. Experience with your class why water is important for people, nature and the economy and why it presents an increasingly significant challenge.
For life
The World Water Library and its people aim to be a powerful source of systemic change. It acts as a vessel of change for a water-secure world for future generations.
