The Genesis project aims to design and implement nature-based solutions to benefit local communities’ access to water. Any school-age person in La Palma can submit a 1-minute video about how water impacts their lives. The submission deadline will be the summer of 2025. The prize for 1st place will be an expense-paid trip to one of the GENESIS demonstrator sites in Cape Verde or Maderia.
