Engaging with the Community: Groundwater Awareness Program at the Nallur Festival: Reflection of Volunteer Experience

I had an incredible experience volunteering with Water Professionals at the Nallur Festival in Jaffna, Northern Province. 

As part of the Groundwater Awareness Program, organized by the University of Jaffna’s WASPAR project in collaboration with local Water Agencies, I had the opportunity to engage with over 50 people, including school students and the public. 

Through interactive demonstrations and a quiz competition, we highlighted the importance of groundwater conservation and its relevance to the community.

The Nallur Festival, one of the most celebrated events in the region, attracts thousands of visitors annually, offering a unique platform to raise awareness on crucial issues like water conservation. 

The festival not only fosters religious and cultural unity but also significantly boosts the local economy, with businesses thriving on the influx of visitors. Being part of this initiative during such a pivotal event was both rewarding and enlightening.
