1 3 Symposium TASK The Future of Contaminated Sites Strategies & Technologies Made in Germany UNESCO HIDROEX Prof. Octávio Elísio Alves de Brito President of UNESCO HidroEX 3 rd Symposium TASK, June 8th, 2011
2 WATER: Strategic resource Around 1.2 billion people (20% of the world s population) do not have access to drinkable water. According to the WHO, about 70% of all current medical care in the world is due to illnesses transmitted by water. In a globalized world with a growing population and demand for natural resources, particularly water, it is essential to consider steps on the local, regional, and global levels.
3 WATER: Strategic resource Brazil contains 12% of the freshwater on the planet and probably 25% of all known species of fish. But, it has few water and sewage treatment systems and its sewers run into bodies of water without treatment. This results in degradation of the environment and losses in aquatic biodiversity. 13 Brazilian hydrographic basins are borned in Minas Gerais State
4 UNESCO Recognizing freshwater is essential to life and to sustainable development, UNESCO supports many projects, some of which are long term projects, such as the International Hydrological Program (IHP), which is in its 7 th phase. As part of the change in bringing water to the top of the international agenda, UNESCO initiated a process to create category II centres by the Members States. They organize their work in accordance with the decisions of the UNESCO general Council. There are some 23 centres Category II. HidroEX is one of those centres and one of only a few which is a true educational institution.
5 UNESCO HIDROEX International Centre for Education, Capacity Building and Applied Research in Water A CATEGORY II CENTRE UNDER THE AUSPICES OF UNESCO Linked to the State Secretariat of Science, Technology and Higher Education SECTES State of MINAS GERAIS BRAZIL

8 What we do Education and professional training Applied research in water, in conjunction with knowledge centers institutions and government agencies in the fields of environment, water and water resources, and with the society at large Strong commitment to the sustainable development Actions in Minas Gerais, Brazil, Latin America and Portuguese Speaking Countries.

10 ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION It assumes that all are responsible for sustainable water use and that the learning starts at school, at home, in the community, in the city we live, in the water basin where we live. Presume intervention in the reality, a process linked to the everyday reality of the learner. Educating for change requires solidarity and cooperation, integrating educators, students and community. Education is completed by actual acts. The Environmental education builds citizenship leading to a collective commitment to build an Environmental Management Program.
11 How to do: EDUCATION FOR WATERS IN BASIC EDUCATION Teachers, students and community Production of Didactic Material Environmental recovery and sustainable management of basins Pilot project: Frutal and the Frutal Micro Basin Pilot Project: municipalities in the Uberaba River basin Participation in the Consortium of Municipalities for the Recovery of Rio Grande river
