Corporate responsibility project lead for 2023 and 2024.\u00a0Project details here<\/a>. Press release published on Nov 29, 2024 here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n
Description:\u00a0<\/strong>Water shortages and droughts are growing challenges that are already being felt in remote parts of Varna and Sofia regions. Climate change projections by 2050 predict a further decline in average annual precipitation (by 7.5% for the Black Sea basin and 4.5% for the Danube basin), which is expected to have a negative impact on water resources.
\nIn the Varna region, the lack of drinking water is already becoming unbearable – there are many villages that are on water regime 6-8 months a year.
\nBoth areas are characterized by karst landscapes. This is an additional prerequisite for lower surface water levels due to the natural presence of sinkholes, but also gives richness to water sources.In Bulgaria, there is a centuries-old tradition of building\u00a0cheshma\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>for public use by capturing drinking water in fountains.
\nSuch places support access to drinking water for people, livestock and wildlife. Usually, the water that flows out of the tap forms a small stream, a temporary or permanent pond. These micro-wetlands contribute to the distribution and migration of protected species.
\nNowadays, due to socio-economic development, many fountains are abandoned without maintenance or completely destroyed.
\nThe revitalization of these key landscape features will contribute to climate change adaptation in response to water scarcity and biodiversity conservation in the target areas.<\/p>\n

Funding:<\/strong>\u00a0The project is implemented with the financial assistance of Cargill and Global Water Challenge
\nDuration:<\/strong>\u00a0April 2024 – April 2025
\nBBF project team:<\/strong>\u00a0Yordanka Slavova, Martina Koleva, land. arch. Gloria Marinova, Iva Georgieva, Vencislav Vassilev
\nProject objective:<\/strong>\u00a0To draw public attention to water as a valuable resource under threat; to highlight the importance of public fountains and adjacent micro-wetlands to biodiversity, people and the climate; to strengthen local capacity to maintain fountains and micro-wetlands
\nProject activities:<\/strong>\u00a0The project will survey public water fountains in selected regions and restore six damaged\/destroyed water fountains as well as two micro-wetlands (one per region). To ensure their sustainable management, local communities will be involved in the individual phases of project actions, from exploration to restoration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
