South Africa - Euginia

After a near-death experience where she almost drowned, Euginia lost all her confidence, and her apprehension around the ocean and seawater grew. I Am Water is a South African foundation teaching young kids snorkelling and ocean conservation. They learn about different ocean species, how they’ve adapted to their environments, and how to take care of our oceans. When Euginia found out about some of her schoolmates attending I AM WATER workshops, she felt apprehension, but also a level of curiosity. She plucked up the courage to take part in the workshops and found a wonderful connection to the ocean. Taking a risk and overcoming her fears built her confidence in a way she never expected. We contributed to the SESLA (Sport for Education and Sustainable Livelihoods in Africa) programme in South Africa by supporting the local staff and young people using the Participatory Video and Most Significant Change methodology to document and articulate the success stories.
