We are transforming the way the values and manages our most precious resource.
The Water Hero project is an initiative by Food Bank Viet Nam focused on addressing water scarcity and promoting sustainable water resource management in the Mekong Delta region. This project aims to support farmers and agricultural communities by providing water tanks to help alleviate water shortages. It also includes training programs to spread knowledge on regenerative agriculture practices, which are designed to restore and enhance the environmental benefits of farmland.
We educate the farmers on sustainable farming practices, particularly regenerative agriculture, which can improve soil health, increase water retention, and enhance biodiversity.
We initiate new approaches and solutions to our most pressing water challenges, leveraging powerful partnerships, authentic engagement, and cultural strategies.
We partners with enterprises, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), schools, and universities. These collaborations aim to boost the project's impact by pooling resources, expertise, and outreach to promote water-saving practices more broadly.
We accelerate the adoption and scaling of the mindset, practices, and policies behind the Water Hero approach to advance a better quality of life for all.
