What we do
Raise awareness about the vulnerability of water through art
Our Purpose: to increase the level of collective awareness of climate change, one person at a time. Within the issue of climate change, we will focus on the role of water. Water gives, and water takes. In some parts of the world, water will become more scarce; in others, rising sea levels and/or heavy rainfall will endanger populated areas.
We raise awareness about the vulnerability of water through participatory art. Art has the potential to create a new perception about things that matter, and hence foster social change. We believe a collective change of heart is possible through the active engagement of the senses, and the application of moral and aesthetic imagination.

The team
The wave has been initiated by an enthusiastic team
We are members of “the Change Leaders” – a community of change practitioners, created by the alumni of HEC Paris / University of Oxford Saïd Business School’s executive specialised Master’s Degree in ‘Consulting and Coaching for Change’. Via this project we want to raise awareness for the equation L I F E = H2O
Only when we see the connections and understand where our water comes from we will appreciate it for what it is. The fuel of life, the molecule from which we originate. And we believe art has the potential to create a new perception about things that matter, and hence foster social change.
