Welcome back!

We are kicking off this semester with our very first event!

Sustaining Water and Land is a combination documentary and speaker event examining the two items that give life to people around the world: water and land. The Vassar Haiti Project and Environmental Studies Department will be first screening One Water, a documentary about global access to clean water that brings us to American streets, Ecuadorian mountains, and Indian rivers. We will then hear from Terry Leroy, co-founder of the Haitian People's Support Project, a non-profit dedicated to improving the lives of Haitian people through supporting community-based projects. Terry will speak to us about the sustainable living projects that HPSP runs. Examples of these projects include pottery cooperatives, farming cooperatives, and seed banks. We encourage anyone with an interest in sustainable development, agriculture, and water access to attend. Food will be provided.

See you all there!
