The project goal is to set up a raw water reserve protected from the waters of the Beaudet Reservoir with two separate water intakes one in the reservoir, the other upstream in the Bulstrode River (upstream of industrial storm drains), dredging part of the reservoir Beaudet in order to obtain a total useful volume of raw water to protect the water intake and allow for a sufficient volume of raw water to cope with a significant drought, to dehydrate the dredged sediments on a drying bed (permanent installation) and dispose of it in a sediment disposal area that will be transformed into a recreational and tourism area.

This project aims to support the empowerment and learning outcomes of adolescent girls, between the ages of 10 and 19. This project addresses the underlying harmful and discriminatory norms, practices, and behaviours that act as key gender barriers to girls’ access to school and learning and to realizing their right to education. This project also works to engage, mobilize, and build the capacity at the individual, household, community, and institutional level, including within schools, to promote the adoption of positive behaviours to improve educational opportunities for girls and women.
Project activities include: (1) organizing mentorship programs for girls to improve their academic and life skills to help them progress with their studies and schooling; (2) conducting dialogue sessions with community influencers and gatekeepers to discuss and address gender issues; (3) organizing community education fairs promoting positive messaging and information for girls' education; (4) providing material and financial support (based on school attendance) on a pilot basis and implemented for girls and their families; (5) providing teacher development programs that focus on strengthening skills, with a focus on human and gender rights; and (6) implementing school improvement plans, with a focus on safety, water and sanitation, and inclusion.

The project’s primary beneficiaries are adolescent girls between the ages of 10 and 19, both in and out-of-school, with a particular focus on girls facing intersectional discrimination (such as those living in extreme poverty, in remote locations, or with disabilities).
