In addition to this WBC sponsorship, BWT water+more also strongly supports the efforts of Sca towards sustainability. These activities underline the similar targets of Sca and BWT in protecting our planet blue. Therefore, the international coffee community, together with all stakeholders along the coffee chain, will be part of the unique BWT initiative ‘Change the world – sip by sip’.
Both organizations have started a joint, four-year project, which will provide 8 new water wells per year in Africa, Gambia, and Tanzania. A total of 32 new water wells. These wells will be credited as supported by Sca, and personally named after the six finalists of the ‘World Barista Championship’ at Mice in Melbourne this year. Each water well will give about 600 people access to hygienic, clear fresh water – 600 people at 32 wells – that’s nearly 20,000 thirsts quenched.
