The EarthEcho Water Challenge is an international program that equips young leaders around the world to become community scientists, testing their local water quality, sharing their data through our global database at monitorwater.org, and using this data to inform actions to protect local waterways. Participants are encouraged to check their local water quality through traditional water quality testing or through visual observations! These findings then be shared on the EarthEcho Water Challenge database which contributes to our global understanding of the state of our world’s water resources. These findings can to help guide projects/actions to protect their local waterways.
