Unicef - Tap Project

Posted 8 years ago

 

UNICEF or The United Nations Children’s Emergency Fund in 2007 launched their Tap Project which aims at trying to bridge the gap among the inequalities that exists in the world. On one hand, children struggle to get a glass of drinking water, while on the other, there is the privileged lot that is unable to take their eyes and hands of their smart phones, taking for granted almost everything around them, especially something as small in their world as a glass of water.

The sponsors of this project pledged to donate a $1 for every minute one can go without touching their phone. Their goal is to try and encourage people to put down something material, which has come to rule their world, and by doing this will grant children access to what is the most basic and vital need of all, water.

What do you think about this campaign? How long do you think you could last without touching your smart phone, while knowing on the other end of the line someone is benefitting immensely, just by you putting your social life on hold for a while.

Do you think such a campaign would work in a place like India, where lack of clean drinking water is only one of the many basic necessities millions are deprived of everyday?

  • Abhishek PariharPosted 7 years agoI read it somewhere that the reason behind world war 4 will be water( oil being the reason for world war 3). One moight find this statement very misleading that how can availability of water start a war. Just look at some videos posted by media about those places where there is shortage of water for a long period of time and then a train or a tanker containing water arrives. People just rush over each other in order to procure a bucket of water. Imagine same scene when water is not available in an entire country, a continent. What will happen? people will start killing each other in order to have their rights over those limited source of potable water. That's the impact and power of water. It can bring peace among two nations(india supplying water trains to its neighbors) or a situation of war(sudan and most of the part of africa) Its the right time for us to recognize the need of an hour that how equal availability of water is essential for each and every human on this planet. This initiative by UNICEF is really appreciable that how we can contribute toward availability of water to those in need. Why keeping your phone aside is mentioned? Its a simple logic. Lesser the time we spend on a mobile phone more we will be using it for something productive, more we will be earining, more will be the taxes payed, more will be the revenue with the governments to spend on public health and availability of water. I am signing for it right now and as it is UNICEF one can generously transfer some contribution from their side and be assured that it will be used for something good. I have seen a similar initiative in which there is an app which claims to plant a tree if you do not use your mobile for an hour. World needs such noble initiative and contribution, though somewhat invisible, of each and every individual to make it a better place to live. Water is not a property of a single nation or government, it an elixir of mother earth for its children and everbody owes equal share in it.
  • MamtaPosted 7 years agoNice
  • MamtaPosted 7 years agoGreat job
  • MamtaPosted 7 years agoGreat job
  • dineshPosted 7 years agojust for getting that what's the narrative being made here , I heard it thrice and then understood what being told here. UNICEF and sponsors of #uniceftapproject in collaboration have undertaken such a great challenge for themselves and they have put up another great challenge for people of alike age-bar.....all those using smartphones. Putting down smartphone for a particular span of 5 minutes can earn a child clean glass of water . You heard it......will you promise to put down your phone for some times just because it can fetch fresh water ! ......if you are kind enough ....do it ...take this great challenge ....and challenge others also to take this ......bcoz here you do not have to pay ,you just have to put your phone down for sometimes I.it will help millions of children across India and around the world to get fresh blessings of beautiful blue drops of water . You are suggested to put down your phone for sometimes or for a month or so on advise of a doctor for the reason that your eyes will be healthy ,mind will work better ,better memory etc etc.why to do that?.....UNICEF and its sponsors provide you a golden advice in this way free of cost and you don't have to abandon your phone for a month or a year if you follow this prescription of UNICEF ..... So..let's together take challenge and enroll others to take this healthy and humanitarian challenge for a good cause.join #uniceftapproject by downloading the app aforesaid in the video .
  • RiyaPosted 7 years agoWater does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, through this Unicef water tap project...you can contribute to a change. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.

It was noticed globally that the scarcity of water due to varities natural calamities like draught , shrinking bof forest , increased population etc .The demand ii's increasing everyday .So the concept of ad is brilliant.
