Soroptimists go for Water, the theme of the SI/E for the period 2007-2011 encourages a better management of water-sources worldwide. All projects on the website, now a total of 150, center around the availability of water and sanitary facilities.
There are three groups of projects: • the PEP projects (Project Exchange Pool), a cooperation between Soroptimists Clubs of Africa, Eastern Europe, South America and West European clubs. • Projects from Unions and Clubs of the European Federation • the PFR projects (Programme Focus Reports) The first two are built around monetary support to chosen and self-initiated projects.
The PRF projects on the website provide lectures, theme meetings, conferences and exhibitions, activities in schools and Universities with a focus on AWARENESS and ADVOCACY.
