The Water Channel
What?
TheWaterChannel – www.thewaterchannel.tv - is a public facility showing over 1,200 videos. MetaMeta, Cap-Net, Nymphaea and UNESCO-IHE initiated it in 2009 with the simple objective to build an open resource with video materials. In the meantime it evolved and now undertakes a broader set of activities including organizing webinars, triggering discussions and debates and documenting forgotten practices.
Why Useful?For your training sessions TheWaterChannel offers a wide database on video
materials which are publicly available online. At the same time it creates a place for
you to share your information and to keep you informed (through newsletter,
waterblog and frontpage buttons) on current debates and crucial but often forgotten
topics.
How To Use It?
Access videos online and download them (if permission allows). The search button allows you to search on keywords. For example this link shows the result if you search on “drought”. Alternatively, you can also search on category. • Upload your own videos to show to a larger audience • Send in your news items and announcements to get it published in the weekly newsTlash • Send in your new publications, pictures or blog to share on the frontpage • Trigger a debate through a remarkable story that can be posted on TheWaterBlog • Set up a webinar. A webinar is an online, live broadcasted seminar, which allows the participants to interact with the speaker.
